About me
Hi, I'm Margrita de Jong, I live in Zevenbergen and I work with my company ColourFlux Studio as an illustrator. I mainly make illustrations on paper, but can also work well with digital illustrations. I have done several commissions for individuals, especially paintings with a personal touch, such as a dog portrait, a map of Paris and Willemstad (in North Brabant) from above. One of my latest commissions is a digital Christmas card in the form of an animation for an interim and consultancy agency to send to clients as a nice greeting. I am a so-called self-taught artist and have mastered various techniques in watercolour and coloured pencil through courses and lots of practice. With my background in IT, I have gained experience with digital programmes such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. I also enjoy working with the Procreate programme on the iPad. I also keep a blog on my website about hiking in the Netherlands, for which I create illustrations. Check it all out at colourfluxstudio.com

Webshop
In the ColourFlux Shop, I sell greeting cards, posters, prints and original illustrations mainly of butterflies and birds, but also places of interest, such as a Chinese and Japanese temple. Much of my inspiration comes from what I encounter during my hikes in the Netherlands. The illustrations on the products are printed or created on high-quality paper. For now, only delivery possible in the Netherlands.
