Hello! Hallo!

A woman with long dark hair, glasses, and a sleeveless patterned top smiling while holding a colorful painting, outdoors in a vineyard landscape with lush green grapevines, rolling hills, and trees in the background.

My name is Sandra Hermans, and I am a watercolor artist & surface designer from the Netherlands.

 

I am the founder of SANDRAAS [SANDRA’s Art Studio], an illustration and design brand. My art style mostly consists of watercolors, fine details and nature themes. I also like to use other mediums like acrylics, gouache, pens and I like to paint digitally in Procreate. My inspiration comes from my love for nature and animals and all the beautiful things I see in the world inspiring me. I love to get caught up in the colors and patterns of my surroundings. When I am not painting, designing, doing yoga or taking care of my kids, I am working as a financial analyst.

Coffee, Paint, Sleep, Repeat…😎

Best moments of my life: Become a mother, spent a summer in Norway…

If I could change one thing about myself, it would be: Don’t have a fear of flying...

My future goals: Go on a hiking trip in Norway, live in a cottage in the woods, have an actual art studio, write a book...

Love to perform on stage as well..'
