In 1997 I graduated from the art academy in Media art.
Then I’ve worked on finding my own style/voice.
And I did in 2001. I finally knew what to do with my life
and with all the words/poetry I had written.
But it wasn’t until 2004 that I could realise my work.
Because in September 2002 my son Liam was born and I wanted to give him my full attention the first few years of his life.
In 2004 I wrote and recorded my first Spoken word album: Voice only. All inspired by Viggo Mortensen. ( Aragorn Lord of the rings)
At the same time I started to make poetry photo’s, ‘snap shots’ of the brain. This is a work still in progress. I’ve been taken Photographs from an early age on.
In 2004 I finally started to write..... Stories.
Short stories and I am working on my first book. You can read some of my short stories in Dutch and English on my story website: www.isobeljourney.com
2005 was for me all about Collaborations. Working with people.
One piece is finished. A man so sad, a collaboration with Siebrig van Heel. A collaboration with Beau Jarred is out there in the future.
And also with Me Jane. And maybe with you?
2006 is all about Pink. I would like to create a Performance/Spoken word theatre about Pink. I am trying to get the right people together for this project. My Pink words came to me do to the beautiful music, lyrics and the exceptional voice of Antony of Antony and the Johnsons . Her voice holds emotions that you can only feel and never can give a name to or even speak of. Thank you Antony for letting me experience all of that. You are beautiful!
Since 2000 I have my own little business called: Au3art.
I design Logo, graphic design. Layouts, DTP.
Do a little bit of designing and building of websites.
Do a lot of photography for my clients. Designing advertisements, designing magazines. On my www.au3art.nl you can see some of the work I have done as an artist and as a designer.
And yes I am a mom and some ones sweetheart too.
I am so happily, happily married!
