Hi,
I am Gladys born in 1996, Netherlands.
Since 2008 living in Curacao. In the beginning (I was 11 years old) I was very homesick for the Netherlands.
We didn't have phones to take pictures with, but from childhood I was always busy with photography. Disposable cameras and then digital ones.
I decided to start painting here. And sell that work. That's how I ended up buying my first (good) camera.
Meanwhile I have my own company here on the island and you can book me for photo shoots etc. Dreamstudiocuracao.
I am not homesick anymore ;) Wouldn't even want to go back to Holland (to live). I do love to travel. So I make every year a beautiful far journey (now I try to go a few times a year). And these works I would like to sell here. The people I meet on my travels tell a story in themselves. But also the landscapes, the nature. Everything is so beautiful when you travel because you look at it with different eyes.
I hope you will enjoy my work.
If you have my work hanging at home you can always tag me on instagram: (gladys_wanderlust or dreamstudiocuracao)
