Bettina Axel

“Intensive colours, vibrant structures and the joy of the creative process form the basis of my work.”
My paintings are created in several layers, which I build up with squeegee and painting knife, rework and partly uncover again. Each new layer changes the underlying layer and leaves traces of the creation process.
I am interested in how this interplay of colour, structure and movement generates its own energy. Intense colours meet hidden layers and surprising accents – nothing remains static.
My pictures should trigger joy, bring energy into a room and invite people to experience colour directly.
