German contemporary artist Svenja grew up in the Hanseatic city of Lübeck. As a child, she painted and drew her daily life and hopes like a diary.

Observant, creative and passionate, Svenja finds refuge in her painting, all nuance and poetry. With a style combining the softness of Impressionism and the sensitivity of Expressionism, she depicts abstract landscapes in warm, pleasant hues. On canvas, the artist uses the quick-drying properties of acrylic to play with light and contrast. She applies her colors with broad strokes while maintaining fluid transitions between tones, for the sky for example. An admirer of the works of Liebermann, Turner and Corinth, she is most inspired by the creative, visionary art of Van Gogh. 

With her paintings, Svenja invites us to take a relaxing, colorful plunge into dreamlike nature, where only our hearts can explain to our eyes what they are seeing.
