SASMA ZOETERMEER
For the presentation of the Dimensions collection, the paintings were photographed at Sasma in Zoetermeer. The building’s modern architecture, abundant glass, and open layout with long sightlines reflect the core themes of the work: clean lines, transparency, and layered depth. Designed with a focus on light, space, and connection, the interior features a striking central staircase that symbolizes movement, interaction, and human connection.

Proud of the collaboration with MO/MAN!
From now on, some paintings are on display and for sale in this concept store. In this store in Katwijk aan Zee, various cultures come together.

PRICES ARTWORKS & DESIGN
Prices are available on the website under the latest collections.
An existing painting is essentially a design, which means it can be recreated multiple times. Since each piece is handcrafted, a second painting may vary slightly from the original. If a new artwork needs to be produced because the first one has already been sold, customers can specify if they’d like to make any changes. Consider options like the size of the painting, color variations, or the addition of a personal touch.
Feel free to reach out with any questions about existing paintings, designs, or custom projects.

GLOVES
In the “Gloves” series, the women takes center stage. A limited color palette has been used. The women are painted with rough lines and areas, leaving some parts blank. The women are portrayed with some realism but in an abstract manner. The face is set up in more detail. The women exude calmness and confidence. The lines of the rough areas in simple colors merge into the lines of the woman. All of them have details such as gold-silver leaf, thick paint lines, and splatters.
Painting ‘Golden Connection’ was used to support House of Restyling in furnishing a home.

Caroline can create designs and paintings according to your preferences. These can include specific colors or lines. From a corporate logo design with the company’s identity colors to a baby announcement. Caroline can also create various designs based on your input. This can be a simple sketch or a mood board. On page customized art, you will find some examples.

INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION
In the artworks that have earned Caroline international recognition, the women takes center stage. The women she paints are very divers, from African women to highly abstract women. The works in which the women takes center stage can be painted in black and white only, but the artworks can also be very colorful.
DAYLIGHT
“The best way to photograph paintings is in natural daylight. For presenting her work, Caroline enjoys photographing her pieces outdoors. Caroline’s work also tells a story. For instance, she photographed a painting primarily in black and white, with only the colors of the LGBT flag on the centerspot to make a statement during the European Championship in Hungary in 2021. She also created two paintings of women in the colors of the French flag and photographed them in Paris.”
