about my art

https://showcasemyart.com/antonie-josefa-latscha-painting-between-memory-nature-and-freedom/
Since my childhood, art and painting have played a very important role for me, and despite the external restrictions imposed by communism, my passion for painting has never been lost.
My creative approach, which emphasizes feeling and chance, allows plenty of room for expression and freedom, resulting in a powerful and honest way of creating art.
The combination of landscape and abstraction that I strive for shows how strongly I am inspired by nature, but at the same time I remain open to the unknown and unpredictable.
The process of layering and revising in my work results in works that possess depth and complexity.
I am not only creating art, but also a kind of dialogue.
The interaction allows viewing my works to become a very personal experience.
This openness and the space for individual reflection are something that many people appreciate in today's often over-engineered world of art.
