Nynke van Zwol (1972) is a Dutch artist who lives and works in Purmerend, The Netherlands. Her paintings are spiritual with a hint of surrealism.
The asemic script she created can be seen as an attempt to capture magic. A deep rooted love for the horizons of her flat motherland bespells her landscapes.
Precisely and with patience she turns every painting into a portal. A world of colorful adventure awaits.
