About
True Colours
Having grown up in Germany, my husband and I moved to Australia with our two young children 19 years ago. The landscape here is so unique and dramatically different than in Germany, and has been a constant source of inspiration for me, even before I started painting.
I started painting in 2015 as a creative outlet. I had never formally painted before, but as my children were growing up and becoming independent I realised that it was time for me too, to reconnect with myself and explore my own passions. I am inspired by the intense colours of the land, trees, and ocean, and so letting it out on the canvas has been very therapeutic for me.
I work as a nurse, which can be very demanding. Painting has allowed me to explore another side of myself, slow down, and to connect with nature in a very intimate and special way. I especially love the ability to take what is real, and make it more fantastical, or abstract, using colour.
I have participated in various workshops over the years, but my "style" evolves from canvas to canvas. I don't focus on formal techniques or even have much of a particular vision for the end result, I prefer to let the colour take over and let the painting come to life in its own way.
