Hi there, I’m Koosje!

pronounced "Kōsha”

I’m an artist and creative entrepreneur living in the Netherlands. I love drawing and I do it every day. On this website, I hope to inspire you to develop a drawing practice too, because it can make you feel good.

Free Online Drawing Session Tomorrow

Free Online Drawing Session Tomorrow

Join me on this Thursday's free Street View World Tour!

Let's travel and draw together, from the comfort of your own home using Google Street View! These monthly free 90 minute sessions are hosted by two illustrated whose art I admire, Eleanor Doughty and Jenny Adam. They bring you to 4 sketchable locations on a theme, which you can capture in the medium of your choice for around 20 minutes each. We will explore diverse areas, from busy cities to remote wilderness.

Each session features a guest artist who will do a 20-30 minute demo - and this month, that'll be me!

RSVP here.

I chose Lisbon as our theme on Thursday, because it's an endlessly inspiring city. And I want to get in the mood for April, when I will be in Lisbon for real. There are a few spots left for the workshop I will be co-leading with my friend Cynthia Morris. 
Grab that last spot before it's too late.
