I`m a Belgian painter from the beautiful city of Ghent in Flanders. I have a great love of portraits; trying to capture the moment and the feeling in the subject`s eyes. My work focuses on the human form; faces and nudes. I'm inspired by all things beautiful and often by books, music and films. Thanks for your visit here! Christel. (All rights reserved.
