Eline Coolen (1996), born in Haarlem, is an illustrator and educator. Her visual work often consists of hand-painted and digital prints. Nature is a recurring theme, with a special love for flowers. There are few things that make Eline feel as happy and grounded as seeing flowers popping up through the grass or taking home a bouquet.

Eline is an allround art teacher. She designs development based art lessons and workshops for daycare centers and all levels of education and special education. Eline's way of designing lessons and workshops comes from her experience as a pedagogical worker in childcare and special education. She specialized in designing activities based on the child's areas of development and can write guidance plans for children and youth with disorders and dissabilities. As an educator, Eline strives to help children and young people develop and shape themselves through art.
