In an interview with Ballpitmag, Van Loon described her work as “colorful and cheerful.” She went on to say that “I mostly work by hand and I sometimes edit my illustrations digitally but I always try to give them a handmade feel.”

As for inspiration, she cited “vintage books, objects and packaging, daily life, nature, the festivals where I work, the work of other artists, museums, Pinterest, flea markets and many other things.”

There’s nothing bombastic about Van Loon’s art. Her work tends to be minimalistic and center around everyday items while applying a simple color palette. The end product, however, is uplifting in an unexpected way.

“I collect some inspirational images and make some sketches with pencil first,” she described her process. “I like to make color schemes in advance to decide what feel the illustration will get, but in the end, I never really stick to it and just improvise. After the coloring comes my favorite part: adding details until I’m completely satisfied!”

She explains the character of these unique birdies: “The love the pairs share is as big as their attitudes. They cuddle, preen and care for each other daily. Observing and interacting with them has brought so much joy and laughter into my life. I’m captivated by their beauty, their intelligence and their sweetness. They’ve quickly become one of my favorite subjects to photograph.”

Enjoy!
