Artist Bio
Dorothea Ney’s abstract paintings present themselves as a playful symphony of colors. Thanks to her travels and different living conditions she has learned to blend the different experiences into her own abstract expressionist style. Light flows and moves through shifting pastel color fields over the canvas, and boundaries of form are dissolved. Dorothea Ney’s imaginary places enwrap the viewer in a harmonious impression of peace and beauty.
