Corinne maakt

My drawing and painting life

More about Corinne

Corinne maakt (Corinne makes)is my blog about my art work. On the static pages I show drawings, paintings, monoprints and mixed media work.

In June 2014 I joined the 101 Art Challenge: in May 2014 a group of budding artists challenged each other to make 101 pieces in 101 days. Not everyone needs to do 101. It’s just the idea of setting a target and making things on a regular basis. I joined a little later and set my target at 50 pieces. Size doesn’t matter: they go from large paintings to postcard sized art.

Me: I am Corinne Bekker, I live in the Netherlands in a household with hubbie and son. I L O V E drawing and painting. I have come to love it more and more ever since I did my first painting workshop in the summer of 2011. Apart from that I love: making asian food when friends come over; my favorites are Indian and Indonesian food.

In my daily life I also work as a freelance fundraiser and projectmanager from my own company. I studied ethics and social philosophy; wrote a phD on women’s studies in philosophy, then I left the uni to go on to organizing events and making publicity for non profit organisations in the Netherlands.
