José studied at the Famous Artists Schools of America and graduated in illustration, advertisement,free painting and drawing. She studied under Ben Stahl, Al Parker, Jon Witcomb, Fred Ludekens, Peter Helck, got her papers in 1967 and then decided to become a ...........singer!
As a singer she worked successfully in the Netherlands especially in the 70ties (was the first female protestsinger) . She made several albums , was a member of the Knokke Songfestival Team and had her own radio and personality show on the Dutch Television. She worked with the well known Ted de Braak in all Dutch Theaters and was a guest in many radio and television shows.
She traveled around the world and performed in the Intercontinental Hotels, on cruiseships and in many international television shows. In Spain she was appearing for 4 years on Spanish television and in the years after that she became the leading lady of the well known close-harmony trio The New Shepherds and after that of Close Encounter were she was leader of her own 7 mans band. made several albums again and performed on dutch radio and television.
During all these years of traveling she continued painting and drawing and was inspired by the countries she visited. The work has many facets, just like a human has many sides in his or her personality.
Feelings and impressions, sometimes subtile, but also powerful and above all the use of bright colors are specific for her art. Non-figurative, abstract as well as figurative paintings, explosions of color, gold and bronze, memories and feelings are telling their story.
José uses mixed techniques and acryl in a very personal style, abstracts, flowers and landscapes, recognizable or with free expression. The composition,technique, the colors and the shape are giving an extra dimension to her paintings. They have to be "beautiful" not boring and always a pleasure to look at.
