Tania painting in the studio
Three narrow canvases: blue-to-lilac, soft gray-pink, and pale sand tones, crossed by fine flowing lines.
01 Triptych

In Context

Thin lines carry the same signal through three different atmospheres. A thought becomes an emotion, an emotion becomes a story - depending on the body, the day, the weather inside. Meaning is never just the line. Meaning is the context.

Triptych - Canvas - Acrylic - 2023 - 20 x 3 x 55 cm

Two tall canvases side by side: layered turquoise-green on the left, layered amber-rust on the right, both with textured brushed edges.
02 Diptych

Duality

Cool and warm. Sea-glass and rust. Two sides - but never cleanly divided. Each panel contains the other in fragments, shadows, and undertones. Dualism is a useful lens, until it is not.

Diptych - Canvas - Acrylic - 2025 - 20 x 2 x 5 cm

Two square panels in cool blue tones with glossy resin; elongated organic forms and delicate neon-like lines float within.
03 Diptych - epoxy resin study

Life in Cells

Two surfaces sealed in epoxy resin, like microscope slides from another planet. Shapes resemble cells, molecules, small living events. Opposites appear, and then dissolve into resemblance.

Diptych - Canvas - Acrylic + epoxy resin - 2024 - 30 x 30 cm x 2

A dark, cosmic-looking canvas with misty speckles and a central, ribbon-like form in teal, violet, and pale gold.
04 Single canvas

Inner Universe

A dark field populated by quiet beings: souls, animals, demons, fairies - whatever the gaze is ready to find. From a distance it reads as one gesture; up close it keeps unfolding. The universe outside and the universe within share the same rule: infinite detail.

Canvas - Acrylic - 2025 - 50 x 30 cm

A circular painting of a curling ocean wave in layered blues with white foam, tightly composed inside a round frame.
05 Round canvas

The Wave

A familiar wave, framed as a circle. The rectangle is left behind; the motion becomes a cycle. Everything arrives as a wave - breath, light, seasons, attention. The curve returns to itself.

Round canvas - Acrylic - 2024 - Diameter 40 cm

A textured seascape: pale blue sky, a dark rocky headland, blue water, and warm sand in thick, expressive strokes.
06 Single canvas

The Headland

Started as a technical experiment - no plan, no sketch, just new paint behavior. A coastline appeared anyway: the place where love lives. Sometimes the hand knows the map before the mind remembers it.

Canvas - Acrylic - 2022 - 40 x 40 cm

A sailboat with a bright, textured sail glides across layered blue water beneath a muted, streaked sky.
07 Single canvas

Passage

A small sail moves through changing water: calm, resistance, glitter, dark. Life has no single weather; it keeps moving. The journey is not the interruption - it is the medium.

Bio

A return to painting after fifteen years of image-making in motion.

I drew and painted for most of my early life - then spent years making images in motion: editorial sets, styling, film, and travel television. Later, the work moved closer to people: supporting refugees in Austria and building social innovation projects in Vienna.

After fifteen years away from the canvas, I returned. Painting is meditation with pigment: sustained attention, a single object held long enough to open. These works are the result - not answers, but observations.

Early years: drawing and painting Editorial, art direction, production Travel TV production Austria: refugee support Vienna: social innovation work Return to painting: acrylic on canvas
