Bio
After a visit to a psychic who advised her to start painting, Alma started in 2012. Until 2020 she combined painting with her work as a nurse in the hospital. Now it was time for her to further develop as an artist. In her studio at home, Alma creates paintings that come from her feelings. Alma participates in various art fairs every year (Amsterdam, Maastricht, Eindhoven, Tilburg, Ootmarsum and Gorinchem). In 2022, Alma won the JaKunst Art Award.

Work by Alma Jansen
Is defined by abstract and deeply intuitive creation. She employs various objects to apply acrylic paint to the canvas, rarely relying on a traditional brush. Her work invites viewers to connect with it emotionally, encouraging a deeper, feeling-based engagement.
