Nina Aerts is an illustrator born in 1982, currently residing in Antwerp. She creates drawings, cartoons, and the occasional piece of art.
The craft of drawing holds a profound place in her heart: the sound, the scent, and the immediate truth of pencil, paint, or ink on paper or cardboard captivate her. Although she sometimes works digitally, she prefers to create her illustrations analogously; paper, pencil, eraser, scraps, and paint stains adorn her drawing table - and usually her fingers and clothes as well.
What she creates is a reflection of who she is: a cheerful melancholic, a rational dreamer, a thoughtful lover of absurdity. Someone who contemplates deeply before making impulsive decisions. A meticulous collector of unchecked to-do lists.
But above all: curious and always distracted by all the beauty in the world, which she strives to preserve as much as possible. On paper - tangible but elusive, ephemeral but still eternal for a moment.
