Kaija Art

hi, i am kaija - an artist based in germany i come from a family of artists and have lived in and with art since i was a child. nevertheless, it was only after a successful working life as a business expert in frankfurt am main and the birth of my 3 children that i found my real calling, painting. my grandfather was a very talented artist from austria. he painted mostly realistic landscapes and portraits that my grandmother would then sell at the local market. he would have loved to have become a famous artist however achieving such dreams was difficult during post-war times. apart from my grandpa my twin sister, whom i am incredibly close with, studied art for many years painting in a more expressionist style. with my structured geometric shapes but also abstracted colored areas, which are part of all my paintings and for me represent the balance between chaos and order and the broad spectrum of human feelings, i would like to invite the viewer to get lost within this picture. with
