My Paintings
I love painting and I enjoy learning. I have been drawing and painting since my teenage years. I love the artists of classical school, realists, especially those who are masters of painting the light, so my own style is a kind of tribute to them.
You can find some of my works in my gallery.

All about Val
My name is Val. Some call me Valta, as I sign so my art. My partner Paul and I live on the beautiful Dutch island of Ameland. Our best friend Chester and we enjoy our sea and the coastal nature, our old house and garden. I sometimes post in my blog or on my Instagram.
