Petra Rick
- I live in Schwedt, a small german town in Brandenburg.
The area is called Uckermark and is surrounded by a unique and varied nature.
- I am a qualified florist.
But painting was always a passion and hobby for me.
My knowledge as a florist helps me in particular in painting of still life pictures.
- As an autodidact, I have learnt a lot of different painting technologies during the past years.
My preferred technologies became oil painting, pastel drawing, aquarelle and graffiti.
- Painting of objects, especially
painted milk cans or painted goose or
painted ostrich eggs gives me a lot of fun.
- Nature and animals have always remained my preferred motives.
I love animals especially dogs, what you can easy recognises if you have a look at my
landscape pictures and
animal pictures.
- Painting on commission in particular
portraits of a person or an animal were strongly requested during the last years,
and so portraits became a new main focus of my work.
- To develop my technologies with professional help,
I finished a 2-year distant school for creative painting.
