 Born just right at dinnertime in Wels / Upper Austria at 18h29 on the 18th of September 1953, in the year of the ‘Snake’, under the sign of Virgo with ascendent Aries.
During my gymnasium years in a private girls school, my artistic talent was promoted by art exhibitions in this school as well was my writers-talent by sending my stories to various youth-competitions where I also won some credits.
I went to England to study arts in the Camden Art College (which doesn't exist like this anymore) and made painting-technique courses in Austria during the summers with Ernst Fuchs, who taught the ‘Altmeisterliche Mischtechnik’. My former college changed and became the Camden Art Center in London.
Brakes in my artistic work were caused by longer durations of stay abroad and my self-employment as an advertising-expert for a television broadcast company.
After my move to the little village Burgkirchen in the Innviertel in Upper-Austria, I slowly started absorbing the inspiration of this rural area and decided in 2005 to stop working for the TV-broadcast alltogether and focusing on painting, carefully watched by my three cats...
