My Journey
My journey as a muralist began at the age of 14 when I received my first spray paint cans as a birthday gift. Initially, I practiced on simple wooden panels because I wasn’t aware that it was even possible to legally paint on walls. Once I discovered legal walls, I started biking to these spots to create my art.
One day, while biking to school, I happened to pass by a muralist named Collin working on a project. I was so inspired by his work that I reached out to him on Instagram. Our conversation sparked a deep passion for mural art. This passion led me to attend the Step in the Arena festival in Eindhoven. There, I connected with other artists and absorbed their energy and enthusiasm, which further fueled my creativity.
I also began sharing my art on TikTok, where I received both positive feedback and occasional negative comments. Despite the criticism, I remain undeterred, knowing that art is subjective and not everyone will appreciate it. What truly matters to me is the joy I find in creating and the satisfaction I get from brightening the world with my work.
As I continue to grow as an artist, I’ve realized that mural painting offers a unique thrill that goes beyond just creating drawings. Completing a large project gives me an incredible sense of accomplishment and motivates me to keep pushing forward. I’m also eager to improve my videography skills. Currently, I create simple TikTok videos, but I plan to explore more advanced techniques and camera movements to enhance my content.
My goal is to expand my reach internationally and work on murals beyond the Netherlands. Although I’ve only completed a few murals abroad, like in France and a partial attempt in Sweden, I am determined to achieve success on a global scale. I hope to attract clients who will join me on this exciting journey and help me further my artistic ambitions.
