She goes abroad quite often to paint in a new environment. Besides working on paper and canvas, she paints on car wrecks, T-shirts, abandoned sheet music etc. These different materials allow her to reach her oudience in new ways, often guerrilla-style. The objects in her paintings vary from self-portraits and (city)still life’s to landscapes and animals. If her joy and energy come across, then it worked. Sophie was educated at ArtEZ, Arnhem. Her work can mostly be found in Amsterdam. On the street – she likes to brighten up the city by gluing her paintings to power houses – and in many exhibitions. One of those is at the Amsterdam Museum, that recently acquired two of her works from her ‘Art at the Scrapyard’ expo. (They also bought the ticket she received for illegally posting her work through Amsterdam.)
