ABOUT THE ARTWORK

On the first day in my artist residency in Key West, I passed a front yard that was abundantly embellished by orchids. I was immediately put under the spell of those beautiful flowers which were attached to the palm trees' trunks. They resembled swaying gorgeous color dots with a profound sense of vulnerability. From that day on, I only printed orchids, lush gardens and imaginary spaces. Sanctuaries that have the power to stop time and let you reset.

Birgit’s energetic works show a lush world, where nature is in constant celebration. Her lyrical abstractions reflect an intense relationship with the surrounding landscape, an intimate experience of wilderness which mirrors alluring and alarming oneself. At heart being a contemporary romanticist, she depicts the grandeur of nature and the place of humanity within it. She has exhibited nationally and internationally and is represented in Germany, The Netherlands, and in the US. Birgit won multiple awards nationwide.

Recently, she was awarded the Female Lifetime Achievement Award, Art Comes Alive, ADC Fine Art Gallery, Cincinnati, 2022 and was selected for the NG Art Creative Residency in Provence, France, 2023. Her book "Enkaustik- Das Grundlagenbuch zur Wachsmalerei" was published April 2015 by Christopherus Verlag, Germany and translated into English in 2017, “How to create Encaustic Art- A guide to painting with wax”.
