My first vernissage: partaking in “anonyme Kunst II” and selling the “zombie Bambi”

acryl art, Art, Painting

Hurray! I’m finally back! I was offline for the last few months but plan to post more regularly and continue updating this website.

And to start with a big announcement: December was wild! Not only was I able to have one of my paintings hung in my first-ever Vernissage, but I also managed to sell said painting. This is a huge step for me, and I still can’t quite believe that all of that actually happened.

But let’s start at the beginning: Near my hometown, Frankfurt, there is the “Kunstverein Familie Montez e.V.” – a local art association. It hosted an extremely awesome project: “Anonyme Kunst II.” The Kunstverein Family Montez hosted this event from November 30th (vernissage) to December 31st, 2023, celebrating contemporary art digitally and ultimately in analog form, featuring secrets, puzzles, and excitement. The main aim remains to provide a platform for 300 artists to showcase and sell their works for a flat rate of €450 each. It’s an opportunity for both artists and art enthusiasts, with selected works being displayed in the KVFM exhibition hall from December 11th onwards.

The main point of this project is that the artists of the displayed artworks are not known until after the event. Therefore, buyers as well as art-interested people can look at them without bias based on the reputation of the artists. By that, small artists – like myself – have an opportunity to reach possible buyers or future clients.

And not only was I given the opportunity to display one of my artworks digitally – a jury decided that mine would be hung analog at the KVFM together with other artworks. And it got even better – as one of the few artists who were able to find buyers, I was one of them! A really nice gentleman, interested in horror art, saw the spark in my dead bambi’s eyes and appreciated her as well as my art style. I still feel very grateful – not only for him to appreciate me and my art, but also for the KVFM giving me this opportunity as a small artist.

And incase you are (like myself) a bit sad that it is sold– I still sell prints of this artwork! Just write me an email (Patrizia.falk@icloud.com) for further information

Ancestral Gallery: Lena (2021)

Art, oil painting, Painting

When we were kids, my sister and I had two rabbits. Lars and Lena. After some years Lena sadly passed away and we got Lilly.

As a birthday present I painted Lilly ( I can’t quite remember, whom it was a present for) but my mom thought the painting looked like belongs in an Ancestral Gallery. I loved the idea and over time I painted the other two rabbits. Now we have this Ancestral Gallery in my parents corridor and the only one still missing is Maja, the Labrador I grew up with.

Here you can see the painting for Lena. I love how I can notice that I did improve with oil colors by painting the three cuties.

Funfact: My sister wanted to have a little brother named Lars instead of a sister (me) and was rather disappointed when she couldn’t give me that name. Since she was a big fan of “Lars der kleine Eisbär” she picked out Lars when he was a baby, since he is completely white.

The story is about a small polar bear that also has a snow rabbit friend: Lena. In the story, Lena looks exactly like the rabbit I picked out. That’s how we found both of the names for our little rabbits.

Another Fae Update

Art, Sculptures

Here we go again!
I just realized, that I apparently do not have nice pictures of the finished Fae sculptures. So instead of giving you the end result right now, I will feed you more progress updates (even though I finished the two cuties about three to four years ago.

The farther down you go in this Blog entry, the more progress you will notice on them!
