Sabine Gardeick

Sabine Gardeick, a pastel artist, was trained in various painting techniques and basic design elements from a young age. Her work focuses primarily on landscape and cityscape painting, but portraits are also increasingly part of her repertoire. Her works are created through targeted pressure and precise positioning of the chalk, producing fine, subtle, or bold impressions. Multiple layers of chalk are layered on top of each other, creating a special depth. Hidden nuances beneath the upper layers wait to be discovered and give the painting a unique luminosity. "For me, painting is a personal expression of my inner self, which I make visible. This process is particularly intense because I hold the chalk directly in my hand, thus creating a direct connection to the motif and the color."
