Fields unknown Painting

Born 1971 in Germany, Simone holds a MFA in Graphic Design and has worked successfully in the corporate world for over 20 years. Some of her childhood years were spent in West-Africa, from an early age on the only constant in her life was change, in order to cope with the changes of the external world, she started to create her own imaginary inner worlds that she would retreat in. For quite some years now she has chosen to life semi-isolated in the stillness of the Canadian Wilderness, surrounded only by nature and animals spirits and living self-sustainably off the land. She is now a committed full time artist and is teaching expressive art and pottery. Simone works in any medium and in any given format according to whatever wants to be expressed in the moment creativity strikes. She prefers to work spontaneous and almost never premeditates what is going to happen on the surface. Even though her art draws on shapes, colors and other elements of the natural world, it is an examination of the human spirit, the interconnectedness of all things being and her paintings often represent an expression of the soul. Her paintings have a very dynamic component to it and vibrate on a high frequency. She frequently travels into other realms through shamanic journeying and retrieves some of the imagery used in her art from these other realms. Simone Buck, McLeese Lake, BC
