A workspace with two digital art monitors, one displaying a nature scene with clouds and stars, the other showing an illustration of a sky with shooting stars. The desk has a keyboard, mouse, pen, notepad, and a mug with pens. A lamp, a mirror, a small windmill decoration, and stacked books are on a side table, with a warm light illuminating the area.

Can't Find Art That Feels Like YOUR Netherlands?

You moved here to build a life. But every time you try to find art for your space, you hit the same wall.

Cheesy windmill souvenirs that scream "tourist." Cold minimalism that feels empty. Nothing that actually captures what it's like to live between two worlds.

Your walls stay blank. Your space doesn't feel like home. And you keep wondering if there's something better out there.

There is.

I'm Casey, an American artist in Haarlem. When I moved here in 2025 on a DAFT visa, I had the exact same problem. Everything was either tourist kitsch or boring. Nothing felt like MY Netherlands.

So I stopped looking and started creating.

Starlight Falls Studios was born out of necessity - the visa required it. But it became something bigger: a bridge between imagination and everyday life. Art that's actually made for people living here, not just visiting.

Each piece starts as a hand-drawn illustration, then transforms into something you can use - prints for your walls, totes for your errands, blankets for cozy evenings, notebooks for your thoughts.

I design for:

  • Expats who miss home

  • Locals who want fresh takes on Dutch life

  • Anyone who believes their space should feel like magic

Everything is made with care through trusted print partners in the EU, UK, and US.

Based in Haarlem, Netherlands. Working solo (for now). Building something real.

Your walls deserve better than tourist clichés.
