Conscious human | Passionate artist ——— Inquiries 𓆃 artbylienvdm@gmail.com
  • 1. It took way too long to start calling myself an artist and sometimes it still feels strange to say it out loud.  2. I’ve never submitted my artwork to galleries/open calls/…because I’m so used to do everything on my own.  3. I’ve wanted to quit 2836391927437 times, because for me it’s often a struggle and takes a whole lot of time until I’m satisfied with the result.  4. I often feel like a stranger in the art community because I don’t have the background and connections. The competitiveness and hostility sometimes makes me wanne run the other way, because that’s not my vibe. Even finding support in your own surroundings is hard.  5. I often feel lost or overthink my own style. But for me art is evolving, shifting and trying new things. Doing what feels good in the moment.  If you made it this far, thanks for taking the time 🫶🏼  What about you?
Tell me in the comments please  For who’s interested, got this perfectly smooth #sustainable fit by @organicbasics 🧡  #artisttalk #brusselsartist #belgianartist #artsupport #ikkoopbelgisch #duurzamemode #organicfashion #organicbasics
  • I’ve been creating behind the scenes, because that’s how I get my fuel back. You’ll see new things coming your way.  It’s no secret that my interests have a wide range, I love to try out some natural makeup and skincare. 
Always reading labels, testing textures, and learning what actually works for me. I should dive into herbalism some day.  Here’s a dash of peachy pink to brighten up the day from the best @iamazingy 🧡  - The Probiotic Hyaluronic Serum @ruhi_rituals 
- SunCoverup Skin Tint SPF 50 cameo mixed with a few drops of SuperNatural Radiance Serum SPF 30 Medium to create the perfect teint @rmsbeauty 
-Space balm 8 talleah @hirocosmetics (this is definitely my favourite concealer)
-Eyelights cream eyeshadow in Luster @rmsbeauty 
- Multi-Stick in dreamer @iliabeauty 
- Limitless Lash Mascara in After Midnight @iliabeauty 
-Discovery box @nuoriskincare because I’m very much into different scents lately  Kindly gifted*

  • Painting backgrounds, something I skipped multiple times and it made things sooo much harder! I’ve got a few outcomes for this one, only time will tell. I’ll keep you posted.  #painting #acrylicpainting #brusselsartist #artbrussels #womenwhopaint #artreel #wip #thriftedclothes
  • These past weeks have been a quiet storm. 
A series of events, a sudden loss, seeking softness in the daily, but feeling everything all at once. 
I’ve been painting through a swirl of emotions to keep myself grounded.

While working on new material, I love going through my roll from time to time. Damn, I love nature and yes…dogs too obviously.  I’m also always in for any good book inspiration or guided meditations? So feel free to drop it down below in the comments, thank you!  #timeflies #andalucia #huelva #artistinresidence #artresidency #arteventura #nature #artistjournal

I’ve always had this interest in things that tell a story. Thrifted finds and old pieces I’ve breathed new life into. Like these clothes for example, if they don’t quite fit right, like these pants, I just take in the waist a bit. Et voila, I’ve got myself a fit to work in. #ootd #belgianartist #brusselsartist #sustainablefashion #fairwear #thrifting #slowfashion #duurzamemode
