About this artwork

In this piece, I've layered acrylics with touches of 23k golden leaf, creating a symphony of textured blocks that evoke the complexity and rhythms of an urban landscape. The abstract interplay of muted and vibrant greens against earthy tones reflects nature's resilience in city environments. Hanging this painting in your home will bring a burst of dynamic energy and a contemplative reminder of nature's persistence in urban spaces.
Urban Jungle I… & II form a dynamic diptych where order and chaos come together. The two panels can be displayed side by side, either vertically or horizontally — flexible, just like life itself.

With earthy greens, deep blacks, and natural textures, this work reflects the constant interplay between a busy mind and moments of clarity. Sometimes, a walk in the forest is enough to bring some order to the thoughts that are running wild. This contrast — structured versus chaotic — is not a conflict but a coexistence.

Credentials

Works on commission

Marella Hesseling (NL, 1980) is an abstract artist based in Utrecht. Her layered paintings combine structure and spontaneity, created with brush, palette knife, and touches of metallics. The result: artworks that reveal new details over time and shift with the light.

Inspired by contrasts—natural chaos versus architectural order, emotion versus analysis—she creates pieces that feel both expressive and balanced. Her background in interior design shapes her strong sense of composition and space, making her work a seamless fit for refined interiors.

Each piece is original, signed, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. No prints, no copies—just art made to connect, intrigue, and keep speaking.
