About
I was born in Amsterdam. I graduated as a flutist from the conservatory. After that, I attended the Rietveld Academy. I have found a beautiful studio in Amsterdam. I also had a permanent gallery in Amsterdam. At this gallery, I had many exhibitions and sold many canvases. I still live in Amsterdam. Gallery Sous Terre has a number of my canvases for sale or rent. I have a room full of canvases for sale at home, see my website. During the many vacations in France and Spain, walking in the mountains, I was inspired. I looked at the old villages, the stones, and the coasts. Everything I saw was shape, color, and movement. Atmosphere is color. Mood is sound. In every painting, I see a story, just as in a piece of music. Adelheid Zwollo
The painting has now stopped, but my hands are now making pen or pencil drawings. I also create compositions.
I gained my inspiration during the many travels in the mountains of France and especially Spain. The hikes in the mountains and along the coasts with the sea, the stones, and the space.
Sound and color: the atmosphere is sound and the mood is color. Together they are in motion. In every painting, I see a story, just like in a piece of music.
My education: the Amsterdam Conservatory, flute. Then Rietveld Academy: free graphics. I am still busy with music and with drawing and collages.
At home, I still have many paintings for sale in a separate room.
I no longer make large paintings, only drawings. Now music is very important to me. Especially singing. I now realize that painting and making music are very close to each other. I continue to compose, sing, and draw. Movement in shapes and colors.
To listen to the composition, you can search for Adelheid Zwollo on YouTube, there are my short pieces, especially chamber music.
