Brighart, born 1956 in Amsterdam, received creative education at "de Werkschuit", Amsterdam.
She attended workshops and classes of: Michiel Czn. Dhont, Anton Assies, Agaath Koers, Dorien Melis, Aleid Holman and Femia Morselt.
From 2004 till 2007,Brighart worked full-time as an artist at WBK Free Academy studio for visual arts in The Hague.Brighart’s colourful paintings are rich in shades of red.
Apart from acrylic paint she makes use of the newest materials like the Liquitex “heavy body”,golden and Lascaux paint. This thick super heavy paste allows a dynamic texture, attracting the attention to the canvas and the beauty of the paint.
Combine Painting is the use of unusual materials in a painting. This is present in Brighart’s recent work; for instance in her experiments making use of nylon umbrellas in pieces of art.
At the momement I, am working with layers of transparent acryl-paint .(Lascaux).
Some times I,am using glass beads .(See Flirti bird ).
Artist statement : The idea that artists have a special role to play in bringing peace to people and countries appeals very much to me “Participating in this ‘struggle for peace’ fits in with the way I work and why I paint.”
Positive energy
Brighart’s oeuvre radiates positivism, energy and warmth. Though it is abstract, it stirs the imagination. The use of colour in particular appeals to many. Energy and movement are the subjects that inspire Brighart to make her paintings and prints. “ ... bio

My sisters name is Willemien Mees, did you perhaps mean her? She is a painter as well.
