Angelique (Liek)'s photostream |

Some asked me about the boring details ;-)
- M E -
I was born on a foggy evening 23rd September 1972 in the Netherlands. My real name is Angelique but friends and family call me Liek :) I am open minded and friends and family say I'm a nice non-complicated person as long as people don't step on my heart or try to make my life miserable. If they do I can be very hateful ;)
Besides being a wife, mom and hairdresser I also love everything about photography and digital art. I've never taken any classes for it and I hardly ever read tutorials. I like making animated pixels every once in a while but my greatest passion is to take pictures and manipulate them. I make my own brushes and play with my wacom tablet from time to time and I intent to learn more about it along the way. I've never painted or drawn anything on paper but since I've learned a bit about PSP and PS I'm always working on photography and digital art.

Please do not use my work for anything at all!!!
My works are copyrighted, some are even licened by print stores. I had to sign legal contracts for that to prevent others from using my images. I'm truly sorry but I don't have time to answer emails and notes about this question anymore.
If you're interested in prints you can find them in my online store here: liek.deviantart.com/store/
*note* I know my watermarks are ugly, I've tried several different ones but they never made my images look better. My work has been stolen and sold before so please understand that they are really needed these days :(

"Angeliek is one of the most colorful photographs that I have ever seen here. Just when you think you've seen it all, she'll whip out a new stunning image that'll blow you away. The use of fantasy in her creations always seem to establish a strong mood or feeling. Inspiring.
Thanks Dimi"4th February, 2008

"Liek, your work is so beautiful and charming, I'm stunned each and every time you post a new image. Thank you for bringing always a smile to my face and for being a continuous inspiration. I love your digital art, how you call the respective set, and your Portrait work that airs a very special beauty - but you master macro as well.
Keep up your great work my friend - I'm glad calling you a flick~friend!"15th November, 2007

"I've always admired Angelique. From her webdesigns, to her photographies and manipulation. I believe we can say that's she's multiskilled. She can take a photo of the simplest thing, and it turns out to something I'd really like to have on my wall to look at for years. I wish I knew how she does it, but until I do, I'll do with admiring her gorgeous art."

"Your art is too elegant for me to care whether the watermark is pretty or ugly. In fact, its not worth noting when compared to the beauty of your work. I am inspired by your pure, natural talent."

"My dear sis and soul mate is what i call this amazing person. We happened to meet at DeviantArt for a couple of years ago and in this time we have become to know each other very well, we do talk open minded about everything and what she is telling you about her self is absolutely true :)
Her work is outstanding, she always makes her own style even though we do get inspired by each other ...lol
I really look up to Liek, she is always there as a friend and artist, she is very helpful and so deeply loving and kind"20th September, 2007
