Summer in the South - Impressionist Painting by Barbara Schauß

Summer in the South depicts a summery Mediterranean landscape overlooking the sea. The vibrant colors reflect the height of summer and picture-perfect weather. In the distance, the roof of a house peeks through the trees. Created using a layered mixed-media technique, the artwork features a subtle texture that enhances its relaxed atmosphere. The painting is unframed, leaving plenty of options open for display.

Born in 1961 in Marktheidenfeld, Lower Franconia (Bavaria, Germany)
Living in Monsheim, Rhineland-Palatinate, since 1990

"My artistic roots lie in Impressionism. I have been particularly influenced by the French Impressionists. Nature is my greatest source of inspiration. Today, my work can be viewed as a journey "from Impressionism to Abstraction." Representational and abstract painting now play an equally important role in my artistic practice.

I work primarily with oil, acrylic, and mixed media in a variety of formats. My creative process is characterized by both spontaneous painting and elaborate, multi-layered compositions that evolve through numerous layers.

I began exhibiting my work 20 years ago. Today, my paintings can be found in collections around the world."
