Veronika Krobs
born in 1966, in Berlin, Germany
lives and works in Munich

For Veronika Krobs, meditation is a constant source of realisation, inspiration and harmony, which she also experiences in her painting. She is fascinated by the artistic expression of Hermann Hesse, who she feels encapsulates the purpose and result of meditation. In creating each of her paintings, she experiences the change and shift of her own state of consciousness as an artist. An emotional, impulsive yet simultaneously harmonious act, which is deeply meaningful and visionary in its nature. The positive feelings associated with creating art transcend space and time. For Veronika Krobs, the harmony of logic and Intuition above all emanates from the fact that every brush stroke is guided by her internal instinct. Without a predefined plan or theoretical conception. Preferred media is acrylic on canvas. With their striking colouring, the works of Veronika Krobs exude unadulterated joie de vivre, energy, strength and sparkling optimism.

Veronika Krobs has lived in many cities, including Hannover, Frankfurt, Paris, Madrid and Hamburg. She has been living in an artistic environment since her childhood, as her mother was a painter. Her creative development is based on a professional career in the field of marketing. To broaden her knowledge she graduated in psychology at the Ludwig-Maximilian-University (LMU) in Munich. She has been concentrating on her art since 2004.
