About Wendy Buiter
Wendy Buiter is a celebrated Dutch contemporary artist, known for her playful, fashion-inspired artworks that depict powerful women who exude sophisticated style, innate beauty, and irresistible confidence.
An extension of herself, Wendy’s artworks are a translation of her creative energy, boldly brought to life by the women she paints. Each work of art sparks a conversation and represents modern-day beauty in its unapologetic magnificence.
Inspired by fashion photography, haute couture, and modern aesthetics, Wendy unites her appreciation of cosmetics, Art Deco, fine jewelry, and vivid color, to create unique, fashion-forward art.
Wendy’s creative journey began at an early age. As a young girl, she would sketch a specific figure with a triangular-shaped body over and over again, each time adorned with a different, extravagant dress. Wendy went on to realize her passion for the arts and aesthetics, becoming a young, accomplished make-up artist. As she traveled the world expressing herself through make-up, Wendy admired the intricacies of the real-life female portrait, refining her skills through education and observation.
But Wendy’s vision was always far greater than herself and it came as no surprise that Wendy transformed her solo talent into a successful company, known as Beautypartner. Her company gained exposure within the cosmetic world and collaborated with exclusive fashion and cosmetic houses, such as L’Oréal, CHANEL, LVMH, MAC, and Yves Saint Laurent.
After nearly a decade of entrepreneurship, Wendy felt increasingly drawn to her creativity and took a sabbatical to further develop her creative talent, while raising her two children. Wendy was soon accepted into one of the most prestigious art academies in The Netherlands and went on to expand her skillset in Rotterdam, and New York.
Today, Wendy’s entrepreneurial spirit and artistic talent unify to create the ultra-modern artworks so recognizable as the Wendy Buiter brand.
Wendy’s art challenges the traditional genre of the portraiture, portraying powerful women of haute culture in bold and vivid colors. Mesmerizing, vibrant, and mystique, her signature style balances art technique with creative flair, and is achieved with a layering technique whereby paint and various other mixed mediums are rendered onto premium European, wood-free fine artistry paper.
Each unique brush stroke carries its own beauty and embodies the introspection that generates it. The unspoken dialogue between the sketch lines, brush strokes, and brilliant colors awaken the senses and unite to form an intersecting masterpiece, rich in creative expression. The resulting women Wendy portrays are steeped in character, marked in elegance, and sustained by stylized modernity—radiating an alluring energy in constant exchange with the world, and the viewer.
A Message From The Artist
For me, art is not what I do, it’s who I am.
Art is about sharing what’s inside a human soul, using the language of aesthetics. While my inspiration comes from fashion and cosmetics, my art comes from the heart.
My artworks are a fusion of myself and the mixed mediums I work with—my intuition and personality melt together and drive my creativity—representing itself in confident depictions of beautiful, stylish women.
I believe that art stimulates thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and ideas through the senses. My hope is to engage with the dialogue of today’s beauty standards and society’s obsession with aesthetics, to make a bold, visual statement that activates awareness, inspires emotion, and compels viewers to look inward and feel the innate beauty and confidence within themselves.
Since art is both a celebration of creativity and an investment—admired, treasured, and loved—I strive to handcraft unique and irresistible artworks unlike anything you’ve ever seen before, that become a part of your life, and bring smiles to your days.
Love,
