While
taking highschool courses to once be a seamstress,
the drawing skills of Frieda Daelemans were
discovered. To further specialize herself, she starts
studying Publicity on the Drawing Academy of Saint-Michael
in Brasschaat. On the Institute of Saint-Maria in
Antwerp, under the leading eye of Wim Graste, Frieda
takes also a course of an artistical education.
Frieda Daelemans mostly
uses the brushes of oil paint and prefers to paint still
lifes.
Also hunting figures and nature
are some of her subjects.
Since a couple of years, Frieda together with some
other people works in the studio of the Antwerp
artist Wim Graste. She also does some modeling here.
Because of the 400th
anniversary of Antoon Van Dyck, together with the big
Van Dyck show in the Royal Gallery of Fine Arts in
Antwerp, Frieda Daelemans designed a coin with the
image of Antoon Van Dyck in it. This coin is
developed with a stack of 550 pieces and you can buy
it for 13 Euro.
At the Technical
Department of the Mater Dei Institute in Brasschaat, she achieves the
diploma of a seamstress, and on the Free Technical Institute of Antwerp,
in the section 'Modes', she achieves the diploma of a Milliner.
With her education as a seamstress, her future in making historical clothes,
hats and
masks also finds a way.
An exposition, in group, takes
place in Brasschaat and a couple of her works are
purchased by private collectors in Belgium.
