Meet The Artist

HI, I AM LIZE

Artist, lover of Truth, wife and mother of three.
It is about more than what meets the eye. Allow the visible to draw you into the invisible - where the eternal and true beauty lies.

Feeling, believing and being inspired by such magnificent beauty and undeniable truth, I am compelled and strive to through my art, echo the message creation attest to - that we are surrounded by a glorious and powerful God!

—Lize van de Ven

BIO

Lize van de Ven was born and raised in the beautiful Cape Town, South Africa. It was at the age of 15 at the coastal town of Struisbaai where she first picked up a brush, tie-dyed and painted a t-shirt. It was sold and the next moment a small, flourishing holiday business was born.


Today she is a Milan Art Institute graduate and paints from her home studio on the colorful island of Bonaire in the Caribbean Sea. Apart from traditional undergrounds, she also paints on refurbished pallet wood, which absolutely captures the island's essence. She draws her inspiration from her beautiful tropical surroundings, pointing to the spiritual truths nature communicates.

“There is no artwork like creation - it is alive and pulls us to God - the ultimate artist"!” — Lize

In the future Lize plans to expand her business by having different types of prints available and on delving deeper into the message that fuels her work.
