Award winning Kalaheo artist Liedeke Bulder was born and raised a stone's throw from the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, into a family of artists and amidst a culture and landscape of ocean, water, gardens and fields of flowers. These are the things that continue to inspire her art. Liedeke is best known in the Hawaiian Islands for her paintings of orchids, fragile yet fierce and elegant. Her mixed media works on paper, canvas and wood features etherial, earth tone, bistre color orchid paintings, vibrant tropicals and lush Kauai. Her art has been widely exhibited and is in collections worldwide.

Artist's statement Kauai 2019:
"Art for me is about making order out of the chaos of our human condition"  she says.  Bulder has been shaped by her Dutch roots and her meditation practice.   She is inspired by nature always, finding metaphors for our human journeys everywhere.   When working on wood, Liedeke pays close attention to the grain and lets a textural process unfold in oils, acrylics, ink and pencil.
