This artist, of german nationality, has lived in Costa Rica since 1966. In the 70's she became heavily involved with exploring different materials and techniques to express her artistic work. Her artistic vision was inspired by the Costa Rican traditions and way of life.
One of her main media was batik and she has evolved this batik syle into her painting technique. This method has permitted her to achieve new effects filled with rich colour.
One can see interesting contrasts and textures in her painting using stone, sand and sticks using pure acrylics and other acrylic techniques her work is clearly highly innovative.
We are proud to introduce you to this small representation of the artist's large and varied body of work.
