My lady Painting

Techtique I am inspired by early medieval painting with its simplicity and seeming unreality. I work using old techniques of Flemish painting, a system involving many transparent and translucent layers of paint, allowing for a sense of saturation, depth and a glow of light from within the picture. This creates an aura of mystery. At the same time, I try to include a contemporary element in my art, to reveal something new, to create portraits that are not merely images from long ago, but speak to us in the here and now. Lately I have been increasingly attracted to rich, colorful and positive pop art. Which is however very critical as a concept. Accessibility I believe that art should be accessible to everyone. That's why I take part in arts promotion events and exhibitions in the UK, where I lived after graduating, and in Germany. These experiences were the main motivation to open an art school for children and adults, first in Berlin and later in Bremen: Das Kunsthaus. Adele In my private life, I am married to an academic university teacher; we have three children. We moved to Bremen in 2020. I'm very inspired by this city: it's old and beautiful, free and harmonious. And I try every day to contribute to its beauty.
