Tiny's paintings depict defining moments in her life, a central theme she has termed, 'Patterns of Life'. The patterns of life tell a story of the different processes and experiences that are so fundamental to human beings. Her inspiration comes from nature, her immediate surroundings and the stories she hears or reads. Her work is abstract figurative, and uses cheerful colours to express her creativity and enthusiasm. She often works with an art scraper, which she uses to scrape sand and paint onto her canvases. Tiny's work is described as uplifting, colourful and dynamic by her collectors. She wants her paintings to create a moment where the thinking process stops and the intuition takes over. Universe always talks to her, that is why she paints. She puts it into practical use.Tiny De Bruin is a passionate Dutch painter who has exhibited her work in the Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Florida Miami and China.
