Vera Wolsink is an illustrator who is convinced that we will never stop growing up. She often explores and highlights personal dynamics and their vulnerability, always looking for human connection. More than telling a specific story, she strives to leave the viewer with a specific feeling, recognition or questioning their ideas.
She likes to make zines, and is slowly becoming more and more influenced by comics and the comic artists around her. You might even find a panel here and there.
“I’m interested in a direct way of working, often impulsive, associative and fast. This playful way of working often leaves me with small puzzles to solve; a need to react to the playgrounds of work I’ve created and adding or drawing from them to create a narrative.”
“There are many made-up rules in this world, I intend to move away from them as a whole. As an artist, a friend, as someone you see skipping down the sidewalk. I hope that can be felt in my work.”
