About the Artwork:
“I see drawing and painting as a way to learn and I love little creatures like these busy bees or other insects. I’m intrigued by how smart they are and how they are able to make honey from flowers. The way they look is so cute, but at the same time they can hurt you like crazy.” – Marjolein Caljouw
About the Artist:
(Artist Statement)
It all started with a huge interest in the world around me. I strongly believe that drawing is a way to learn. To study something and capture it. I combined hours of drawing with lots of love and created art. Through my art I’ve connected with people from all over the world. Since 2008 I’ve been working as an illustrator on super interesting projects like illustrations for magazines, a 180m2 mural in the flagship store of Esprit, hotels, published a book and painted a Leica camera cover. This gave me the opportunity to work together with art directors, product designers, PR agencies, visual merchandisers, architects and more. Now my goal is to work on a new series of paintings. This is something I wanted for the longest time.
