ASTRID KOHLER - Small Works

German painter, ASTRID KOHLER's still life paintings, some of which are layered with epoxy, are visually accentuated with dramatic pops of color, unexpected narrative elements and oftentimes contain animated wildlife. Her sixteen piece series "Vogelkonig" features delicate birds masterly painted with a three-haired brush and then crowned with neon orange headdresses which juxtapose the artist's incredible technical ability as a realist painter with fluid, gestural lines and attitude.

Kohler seeks new ways of arranging space and blending old and new to create tension for her creative inspiration. She is represented by Morton Fine Art in Washington, DC.
