Meta Jaarsma

Art always had Meta’s interest and color especially intrigued her. After high school she went to Art school and had painting lessons from none other than Ruloff Manuputty. He loved her use of color and learned her the basic principles of painting. However, the fact that she was very bothered by the solvents, that were used in the paint those days, forced her to follow another study. But the urge to create remained. While working as a product developer, she decided to brighten up her life a little by taking a color course in addition to her job, which allowed her to paint again. And also to experiment with color, form and light.
Nomen est omen.
So Meta redefined use of color.
In her free time she gradually developed her LichtKunst, a transparent color design with colored light, designed to reveal the beauty of changing colors.
And she decided to continue as an independent entrepreneur.

To achieve high quality in her work she invested for three years in full time training in drawing, painting and sculpting. This, she still feels, was a present!
Now she works in multiple disciplines with different materials and makes both autonomous and applied work.
Recently she started experimenting with sculptures, glazes and colored light.
