Jolanda Henskens is an illustrator and visual storyteller.
In her work you see her passion for nature, birds, symbolism, friendship.
Graduated from the Art Academy as a Teacher of Visual Arts and Design (2012). Working as an illustrator and visual storyteller with a creative mind 24/7 within my own company Kunstruim.
Creating in any form is just as important to me as breathing. What I draw comes to life on my paper, sometimes it takes effort, but it also often goes smoothly and allows the drawing to draw itself. I hope that my drawings and illustrations inspire and touch other people. I want to convey my passion and feeling.
After 12 years working as an HR advisor, I made a complete switch to art. I started studying again at the age of 37 and 4 years later I got my Bachelor of Fine Arts and Design in Education, which gave me a first-degree teaching qualification. I opted for entrepreneurship. And I started my business Kunstruim and taught adults and children in my own studio and gave lectures for larger groups about art and looking at art.
In September 2017 I started making my own work more intensively. From January 2018 I started drawing birds and animals with high quality colored pencils. My work consists illustrations of book covers, illustrations for stories and short texts. Some of my work is for sale and I am available to make illustrations for stories, for a book cover, for poems and other texts. I mainly work with traditional materials such as pencil or paint. I can make digital drawings in Procreate if needed. For the prices of my work already made: please contact me without obligation for dimensions and corresponding price
