ARTIST PROFILE:
ARTIST’S BIOGRAPHY
Beate Minderjahn, German-born full-time Artist and Interior Designer lives and works on the Hibiscus Coast. Beate prefers to work on a large scale and develops her themes into a series of works.  She also enjoys the challenge of commissioned works. Her Abstract Paintings, Mixed Media, Collages, Digital Photo Art and Art Cards focus on mood-enhancing qualities or specific colours and their interaction with texture. Using different mediums, the art work explores the relationship between visual impact and the positive effect art creates in our life.

ARTIST STATEMENT
“Each of my art pieces is a new challenge and reveals a fragment of life.  It is the constant alternating processes of concealing and uncovering, hiding secret messages, creating with my hands, exploring colours, textures and language. Through different media my art invites the viewer to contemplate further on a soul-searching moment – to experience a visual meditation. Beauty plays an influential role in my abstract painting style which continues to evolve into an ongoing artistic journey of discovery.”
