A swan is often seen as a symbol of wisdom and stands for the awakening of one's own strength, balance, grace, inner beauty, innocence, self-esteem, looking to the future, spiritual understanding, evolution, the development of intuitive abilities, grace in dealing with others and commitment. As well as perfection, togetherness, connectedness and elegance.
All these qualities are combined in this painting. It radiates calm and peace. The 5 swans are realistically painted from a photograph taken on the Rhine between France and Germany. The scene is skilfully embedded in a fluid art background, which was previously created using the so-called pouring technique. In many shades of blue that flow softly into one another.
My works are characterised by a unique fusion of realism and abstraction - animal motifs depicted with astonishing accuracy are set against flowing, abstract backgrounds that lend each work a dreamlike quality.
This unique painting is part of a series showing other animals, especially birds - also shown here on Artmajeur in the profile of Anja Semling.
The painting has won a TALENT PRIZE AWARD from Teravarna.
