Jacquie van Klaveren evolved as an artist through her interest in the joy of creating. She began her career as a teenager taking photographs of landscapes and creating various textiles. With determination and dedication, van Klaveren went on to complete an Honours B.A. in visual Arts, where she was able to use various media and techniques. As a result, she is comfortable in using a variety of media when creating her art. She completed Teachers College and is now a retired Teacher.

On her spiritual journey, Jacquie recognized the importance and honesty in art. She had to share her inner most thoughts about life, loving and faith without holding back. As van Klaveren evolved, so did her works of art. The subject matter moved from politics, architecture, landscapes to figures. Her work gain recognition and commissioned by three organizations to depict their visions in logo and sculpture format.
