Jolanda Richter

Jolanda Richter, painting and graphics
Jolanda Richter was born in 1971 in Almelo, Netherlands. At the age of three the family moved to Hamburg, later at the age of six to Vienna. She soon engaged in art and music and was subsequently admitted into the prestigious ‘University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna‘, where she studied cello for five years. Since childhood Jolanda also displayed remarkable rendering skills, but music and performances consumed her time. Longing to paint, she enrolled at the ‘University of Applied Arts Vienna‘ in 1994, in the master-class for painting and graphics, from which she graduated in 1999. Since 1993 Jolanda partook in numerous exhibitions in group shows and individual shows throughout Europe and the USA. Currently Jolanda Richter lives and works as freelance-artist near Vienna, Austria.
