ABOUT
My name is Neeltsje Stephenson, the face behind Mokum Art.
From 2016, I have been working out of my light filled studio near Amsterdam. Earlier, I contributed to projects on four different continents, which left me with a wealth of beautiful inspiration.
I took art classes in the USA (Hampton, VA), and at the Gooise Academie voor Beeldende Kunsten in The Netherlands, where I learned to work with various mediums, such as acrylic and oil paints, as well as water colors.
As part of an artist collective (ArsProDeo), I participated in various traveling expositions around The Netherlands, and Belgium (OM). In 2021, I started working in collections and established Mokum Art.
- Art for those who seek meaningful fine art for their homes,
which serves as a positive mindset reminder —
Besides making your home feel dedicated, the image can also serve as an inspiring conversation starter. I am honored to have my artwork welcomed in the homes of collectors in countries like the USA, Canada, Japan, Israel, France, and the Netherlands.
Besides art, I have a background in linguistics, education, and Biblical studies, including a one-year program in Jerusalem.
Together with my American husband, we form an international family, and our children are growing up trilingual. (Such happens when your mom is a linguist I guess.) Being part of two cultures has its challenges, but much more than that, it makes for an interesting and colorful life.
My hope is that you will be inspired by my Scripture fine art!
