"Lilac bouquet" Fine Art Print

Ellen Frischbutter, Germany, Leipzig.

I came to painting not through technique, but through inner vision. For many years I worked as a psychologist and mandalotherapist, helping people to express what is difficult to put into words - through color, form, brush movement. I could feel the images, as if the body could hear the soul - and I just trusted.

Gradually I started to paint more on my own. First, mandalas in watercolor. Then acrylics. And then oil came into my life - like a living, deep watercolor that you can talk to for a long time. I fell in love.

Paintings began to be born from within, from feelings, from silence. I couldn't part with them for a long time, but then I felt that they needed to go out into the world. That's how my first sales began.

Over time, I was trained, participated in art projects, and studied myself. So I gradually became an artist. And now I paint not only from myself, but also from personal stories - from memories, feelings, dreams.

I haven't left psychology - it's still in me. It's just that now I speak through colors. My task is to feel, to hear and to give it form. In light, in color, in the breath of the painting.
