Petra Schott

I was born in Germany in 1953, studied fine arts in Kassel/Germany and started taking part in exhibitions nationally and internationally as of 1993. I am part of the national association of professional artists (BBK) and of the national association of professional female artists (GEDOK).

My works revolves around visions, ideas and emotions in past and presence in a figurative-abstract way. The human figure or landscapes often are my transmitting medium which I use in an abstract manner. Both appear fragmented or only in parts visible, painted with lively brush strokes or immersed in an abstract environment. In my pictorial presentation I search for freedom, lightness, liveliness and intensity. I work with strong colours in my oil paintings applied layer by layer. I love the texture of oil colours and the depth of the space created on canvas. I like working with lines, sometimes condensed into drawings or writing which I use as a sort of compass and structuring element.
