“Art is not only a passion, but also a way of life.”

Katharina May was born and raised in Germany. She works as freelance artist who self-taught methods and techniques of oil and acrylic paintings. Continuously does she strengthen, consolidate and refine her artworks. She works with eco friendly bird-sand instead of chemical paste to get a specific thick texture. The mix of surrelalism, naive and contemporary art makes her paintings very absorbing. Experimenting with wood wool, wood flour and found feathers led to a variability in her former paintings. She wants to bring out a meaning and a message, not just a painting. Her paintings are telling a story for reflection where you can see the beauty of this world, but also problems we all face. Katharina May belongs to the so called group of autodidacts, who observate and learns in self-education. She feels inspired by daily life and wants to make people happy with a dose of art and arouse attention to our modern world.
