Rahel Schmid is a contemporary artist who creates atmospheric landscape paintings with emotional depth. Her art oscillates between representational and abstract painting, combining modern landscape depiction with expressionist imagery.
The paintings arise from intense experiences of nature and are characterized by a keen sense of color, light, and mood. Using oil paints on canvas, she paints lakes, mountains, skies, bodies of water, and vegetation—often inspired by Swiss landscapes, from the Alps to lakes like Lake Thun or Lake Geneva. Thus, motifs from nature are transformed into abstract, poetic compositions reminiscent of both classical landscape painting and abstract art.
Whether modern oil paintings, abstract landscapes, or contemporary depictions of nature – the works invite you to find peace, let your thoughts wander, and immerse yourself in a complex world of sensation, nature, and memory.
