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 habit too, because it can make you feel good.

Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!

A while ago, I worked on a fun project outside of my regular sketchbook.
For this project, I used an accordion sketchbook to go on a virtual trip to Malta!  
I found reference pictures on Google Images to draw, and to learn about Malta a little bit more.    
Why? Because I will be traveling there for real, in November this year.
I'll be teaching an urban sketching vacation workshop, hosted by Brenda Murray from Studio56boutique in Malta, an archipelago smack in the middle of the Mediterranean!

Drawing and traveling virtually warms me up for the trip, and I am now even more excited to go.

FREE DEMO: travel virtually with me, live!
I'll be doing a free drawing demo on April 27 2023, drawing the Victoria Gate. You can sign up for it for free here.

MALTA VACATION WORKSHOP  
Of course, I would love for you to join me in Malta in person so we can draw there side by side! Check out the itinerary here.
