Welcome to my website.

I am Floortje, artist from Almelo. My digital collages are colorful, playful and full of fantasy.

Hi all,
Just some quick fun news. As you may have heard, I am making one of my works from the exhibition “It’s Not What It Seems” available for auction for The House of Cotton and Now. All proceeds will go to the House’s coffee pot.
I don’t do that lightly. Even before I exhibited here, I regularly came in for a cup of coffee. Just sit down, have a chat. Like so many people do in what for many has become a meeting place in Almelo.

That coffee is offered at a free donation so that everyone can feel welcome. But of course that coffee pot doesn’t fill itself. That is why I would like to give something back to the House with this work.
The exhibition is now proving to be a great success. Five works have already been sold and therefore the exhibition has been extended until March 29, 2026.
The winner of the auction will also be welcomed to The House of Cotton and Now for a meet & greet with me. A nice moment to personally hand over the work and have another cup of coffee together.
More information about the auction and how to bid can be found at:
House of Cotton and Now
In the coming weeks we are going to draw attention to the auction in different ways. It would be super if you would share the messages as much as possible.

My exhibition “It’s not what it seems” has been extended 🎉

Due to its great success, my exhibition “It’s not what it seems” has been extended, and I am extremely happy about that. It is special to see how many people are surprised and inspired by my digital work. Therefore, I would like to personally invite you to come see the exhibition. ✨

In this exhibition, I take you into my world of digital art, where perception and reality are not always the same. My works play with what you think you see and invite you to look more closely. What seems obvious at first glance can suddenly turn out to be something completely different. Precisely that moment of wonder and discovery is important to me. 🖼️

It means a lot to me that so many visitors have experienced my work, and I hope that even more people will have the opportunity to visit. Whether you are already familiar with my work or discovering it for the first time, you are welcome.

I invite you to come see for yourself and experience “It’s not what it seems.”

📅 On view through March 29, 2026
📍 House of Cotton & Now

I hope to meet you there! 🙌

Mayor Richard Korteland of Almelo

I’m Floortje van Loon and I don’t paint with paint, I paint with pixels. Layer by layer I build my
collages on each image a mosaic of color, shape and feeling. With Photoshop as my
tool, and my imagination as my compass, worlds arise that are sometimes playful and light, sometimes
unexpected and layered, but always with a touch of fantasy.

For me, art is about connection. My collages are not detached digital constructions,
but invitation to stand still, look and be surprised. A color that touches you. A
image that makes you smile. A detail that makes you think for a moment. I believe art only truly
acquires meaning when someone else sees something of themselves in it.

My studio is my living room in Almelo, a place where walls are filled with collages that
whisper stories and make colors sing. It is not a closed domain, but an open place where
ideas flow and where I share my work with the world around me. Through exhibitions,
initiatives such as Kunstpunt Almelo and Open Ateliers, and encounters with visitors, I look for

again and again that exchange between creator and viewer.

I want to make art that is warm, accessible and human. Not cold perfection, but vivid
imperfection. Not distance, but closeness. Because for me, art is not a luxury or elite product, but
something that touches and connects us all precisely in the unexpected and the playful.

Buildings that start small, but are large enough to wander into. Collages that lift you from reality for a moment and take you to a place full of color, humor and wonder.
