About me
The Bulgarian-born painter studied at the university of Veliko Turnovo where she majored in Fine Arts. Specialising in monumental religious painting and pedagogy. After graduating she came to Germany to study engineering in Karlsruhe and continued to work as an engineer for several years. Following the birth of her second child, she made the decision to focus on her career as an artist and, since then, has actively participated in regional, national and international exhibitions and plein-air events dedicated to painting. While most of her works are in oil and water colour, she also enjoys working with mixed media. E.g. combining oil pastels and water colour. She spent most of her childhood at a breeding facility for sport horses, they are one of her favourite motifs. Another recurring motif in her work, continually reinterpreted, is the human being – the face as well as the body. This skilful painter may reside in Germany, but her paintings are spread across the Museum of Contemporary Art in Bulgaria as well as private collections in Europe und the USA. She has been a member of the National Union of Artists in Bulgaria and a member of the Union of Artists in Baden since 2017.
