Client Testimonials
"Walking into Nicky's studio, I felt an immediate sense of calm. The colors, the energy, the atmosphere - it was like stepping into a different world. But the real magic happened when I picked up the brush. As I painted, I felt my worries melt away, replaced by a sense of peace, joy, and freedom I hadn't felt in years. It was a truly transformative experience."

FAMILY WORKSHOP
"You completely sensed us, two analytical people. You listened very carefully to our concerns and understood what we didn't even say. You knew how to convince us and take us into your story. Together, step by step and with a very secure feeling, we created something that reflects us. You translated us - the complexity - incredibly. You "read" our children. You named traits and observations about our family like I have never been able to put into words myself."

CORPORATE EVENT
"Dear Nicky It was truly a pleasure to meet and work with you. I wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I admire your wondrous talent, spirit and energy. You defined the UE visual system in a way that will continue to shape its image, wherever it goes from here. The reserves from which you pulled this beauty clearly run deep. And that you undertook the physical effort of bringing everything to Switzerland, setting up, breaking down, returning to Belgium... I'm astounded that you did all of this and with such poise and grace. It was truly a lucky day for Eva when you participated in that Patient Day at Roche Belgium! Isn't it crazy how fate throws two paths together!"

FAMILY RITUAL
"From the moment I wanted to enrich my home with a piece of art that meant more than just aesthetic beauty, I knew Nicky van Artkom would be my go-to person. I longed for something that had emotional value - a colourful painting of my girls, brought to life by their own hands and those of their beloved grandmother.
My visit to Artkom was nothing short of magical. The venue exudes inspiration, peace and freedom, making it the perfect backdrop for this unforgettable experience. It was not only me who was touched by the atmosphere, but also my mother and my creative daughters.
Working with Nicky was an absolute dream. Her warm personality and natural ability to interact with children made the process smooth and enjoyable. She has a unique talent for explaining things in a way that children can understand and appreciate.
But what I think is most valuable about my collaboration with Artkom is the lasting memory of the feeling it gave me. Freedom. Peace. Openness. These words stay with me long after the painting is completed.
I would recommend Artkom without hesitation to anyone who wants a unique family experience, resulting in a beautiful and valuable work of art. It's a worthwhile investment, and Nicky's art and method are worth every penny.
Life can be hectic and it's easy to put things like this on the back burner. But if you get the chance, grab it with both hands. You won't regret it."

FAMILY RITUAL
"Experiencing Nicky Myny's 'Family Ritual Art Experience' was, in truth, beyond words. It was an extraordinary journey that not only brought us immense joy but also created an unforgettable bond amongst us as a family. Nicky, with her incredible facilitation skills, made the session not just engaging, but deeply fun and rewarding.
Our family found ourselves engaged in conversation about the experience long after it had ended, each one of us profoundly impacted and thoroughly delighted. To say we simply 'enjoyed' it would be a gross understatement.
It was, without a shadow of a doubt, an invaluable experience that will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Our most sincere thanks to you, Nicky. Your workshop was more than just enjoyable; it was genuinely unforgettable and priceless."
