Poppy's Joy (2024) Malerei von Martine Weber

Hi there! I'm Martine, the creative and versatile energy behind IM'Art. I live and work in the heart of Utrecht at Kas&Co on the Veemarkt, a place that embraces my creative world and offers me inner peace. This special location serves as both my home and studio, where the magic of art comes to life. IM'Art is nestled in a multigenerational community, with several artworks adorning the "Kas" (greenhouse), our communal space.

As a highly sensitive person and artist, I have always felt a deep connection with my surroundings and emotions. My challenging upbringing has shaped my life in ways that are difficult to put into words. I grapple with ADHD symptoms and the traits of a gifted mind, making me sensitive to stimuli and creating challenges in maintaining focus.

In my early twenties, I dedicated five years to art lessons, including a year at the School of Art in the United States, focusing on portraits and nature. Life led me to a career and family, but my creativity persisted in stories, illustrations, and music. Resuming painting last year, my art mirrors experiences, emotions, and the balance of a creative soul finding expression on canvas.

I capture cityscapes from various places through my unique lens, painting impressions of togetherness and other urban scenes. Often, I depict a person alongside an animal in a figurative style, expressing human emotions, connections, and the relationship between humans and nature. Painting provides me with focus and deeper meaning in my life. My work vividly reflects the world as I experience it—full of color, dynamism, and emotion. Through my eyes, Utrecht and other cities come alive: their iconic elements, hidden corners, and unique atmospheres. These artworks are personal narratives and memories, captured on canvas for everyone to discover and experience.

My artistic journey is a lively exploration that has evolved me into a versatile artist. Each creation at IM'Art holds a unique energy, reflecting the 'True Colors' of my soul. My creative process often starts with a charcoal sketch, with backgrounds crafted in acrylic paint, unfolding through a blend of media.

Beyond painting, I am also a composer and writer. As 'Sofie Weber,' my musical creations and the tales of Sofie & Pawgles come to life through illustrations. Open to commissions, my art spans cityscapes, dreamscapes, portraits, and pet portraits. Drawn to my style? I'm here to bring your vision to life.

Thanks for joining me on this artistic journey. Let's paint the world a little more beautiful together.

Warm regards, Martine Weber
