‘‘Creativity knows no bounds—it's infinite and shaped by our imagination. As humans, we possess the power to mold it into something truly remarkable. Through the act of creation, we delve into our inner truth, connecting to something deeper and more profound, discernible only by the heart.’’

Jasmijn Engel (b. 1990) From the earliest days of my childhood, art has been my constant companion. Growing up as an only child with just my mom, I turned to creativity for solace, clarity, and connection—especially during moments of emotional intensity and inner searching.

Art was more than a pastime; it was a lifeline—a place where I could return to myself. Immersing myself in color, form, and imagination, I discovered a sense of stillness amidst the movement of my inner and outer worlds. Creativity became both a compass and a catalyst, guiding me through fear and self-doubt. It helped me embrace my sensitivity and reconnect with the parts of myself that had been left behind. Now, more than ever, art remains a grounding force—one that continues to accompany me through life’s unfolding journey.

As an abstract artist, I draw inspiration from the raw emotions and subtle feelings that shape the human experience. Each piece I create is a layered exploration of resilience, sensitivity, and transformation.

Through my own process, I’ve come to see how vital creativity is—not just for me, but for all of us. There’s something deeply human in the act of observing color, texture, and form. Even the most personal of works can stir something in the viewer: a memory, a feeling, a forgotten part of the self. I believe that art has the power to awaken what lies beneath the surface—gently inviting reflection, emotional connection, and awareness.

With each painting, I aim to create a space where emotion can be felt without words, and where imagination leads us back to something essential within ourselves—connecting with the quiet, intuitive parts of us that respond to authenticity, feelings, and presence.
