“I try to make people aware of our nature, which I do by painting native, wildflowers. Often our little flowers don't stand out, so I try to draw attention to them, by zooming in, using bright colors ...
But also, for example, by growing our front yard very wildly, even though sometimes I find it hard to hear the comments. But that's the part we want to contribute. Green resistance is needed in Flanders, where everyone loves their lawnmower.”

“Within our family-and in my own business-we try to make everything fit our values. That's why we love the Ray & jules story, which makes drinking even more fun.
Sometimes I think, “What am I doing?”, “Is it helping?" But doing nothing doesn't feel good either.... ”If everyone tries to do little things like that, a lot can change."
“An important coffee moment in my day is waking up. Otherwise, I'm really not approachable. My family knows they are pretty quick to offer me coffee and walk away! I learned to drink coffee through my husband; a real coffee geek. I prefer cappuccino myself, and love coffees with warm undertones, chocolatey or nutty. Then my morning is good.“
”This mug my grandmother had specially made by a ceramicist when she knew she was going to die. It is my most treasured possession.”
This is why Elise is a sunny person
“I try to shine a small light on the world by expressing my heart for nature. I do that by painting native flowers.”
