Mieke Jonker started her creative career as a goldsmith, but was inspired to satrt painting after she saw Rembrandt's portrait of Haesje van Cleyburgh at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
In her paintings she seeks to capture the quiet beauty of still interiors, inviting viewers to imagine themselves within the scene. Her vibrant colors and strong contrasts define these scenes, executed with a free and expressive touch.
As a Chinese saying goes: "A good painting requiers the eye, the hand and the heart," recognizing that true art is born from keen observation, skilled execution and heartfelt expression.
