Belgian sculptor and painter Cris Pereby born into a painter and sculptor family spent her childhood in Belgium. She was fascinated during her many museum visits by the Early Flemish painters such as Hans Memling, Jerôme Bosch, Peter Chistus, Pieter Bruegel and admired their magnificent art so delicate and full of spirituality. She discovered later that a genius of impressionist painting, Vincent Van Gogh, lived close to her Belgium home before leaving for Paris and Arles. Her destiny was that she should follow in his footsteps.
