Bike Ride? Painting

A self-taught painter since 2006, Celina has a university degree in International Business but has always had an interest in the arts, which have been her abiding passion. A frequent visitor to art exhibitions, galleries and museums, she longed to own paintings like the ones exhibited, and to show them on the walls of her own home. So, instead of starting a private art collection, she decided to create her own work. This activity has come quite naturally, as though art were a dormant attitude in her, waiting for the right moment to be revealed. She did some painting before adulthood, basically reproducing paintings by major Impressionists, and learning, quite instinctively, to use color and palette. Now, finally, circumstances have allowed this skill to come to life, and she has been fully dedicated to painting ever since. Her inspiration comes from photographs she takes; she always enjoyed photography, but started taking photos with a different purpose: that of recollecting images, illusions and colors to later transfer to the canvas. Born in Madrid (Spain), after living in Colombia and France for many years, she lives in Berlin since 2015, enjoying the rich inspirational moments this fabulous city offers.
