I am Leen Vanacker, a Belgian Artist, who lost her heart in the Dolomites. Freedom and Authenticity are my highest values in life and that can be seen in my art. As a child, I liked to be creative. Unfortunately, there was no time for it as a medical student and during my training and job as an oncologist.
Due to a severe burn-out, I gave up my job as an oncologist in the University Hospital in Brussels. I had given everything to my job and to my patients. It was high time to take care of myself. This was the beginning of a deep inner process. Who am I? What is my goal in this life? My creativity helped me find myself again.
At the end of 2020, I started with intuitive painting and it felt like coming home. Painting in complete freedom, without judgement, without expectations is Bliss for me. I paint on canvas with acrylic paint. Every creation is a reflection of my inner transformation.
In 2021, I discovered the healing power of drawing mandala, since then I never stopped. My greatest passion is the birth mandala. It’s a beautiful Symbol that reflects your unique Journey through this life.
Although I am no longer able to practice my job as an oncologist, I would like to mean something for people who need support. With my art, I support people in their own process (for example, in case of trauma healing, chronic and severe diseases, in case of a burn-out, at the end of life or in case of grief) and put them back in touch with their own light, their inner strength and their self-healing power. I bring light and joy back into their life.
The special healing energy of my artwork is actually valuable for all people.
I bring light in the darkness.
