"From Africa, where a supreme paradox of nature reigns, the clamouring harsh wildnesses contrast vividly with the serene peace of vast spaces; from which an artist may find glorious opportunities of self-expression." Monty Brown

Having lived and travelled through different countries in Africa, Angela opens a door to the continent for us with her art. Her paintings guide us on an amazing safari across desert, jungle and savannah where her passion for people, landscape and wildlife is expressed in her work.

Angela comes from Austria and after living in Sweden, Germany, CAR, East Africa and Myanmar (Burma) she now resides in Scotland. After a commercial education she attended art-schools and works in Oil, Pastel, Watercolour, Pencil and Charcoal. First-hand experiences of deep jungle, vast grasslands, open plains and bush savannah inspired her to extend her colour palette in an expressionistic style. The barren regions of the Sahara, Kalahari and Namib deserts, in contrast to the lush green areas of the Okavango Delta and the serene game filled plains of the Serengeti assisted to produce her portfolio.

To underline her commitment to conservation, some of the proceeds of Angela's paintings have been donated to the Rhino Ark organization and further proceeds are pledged to the Born Free Foundation, Ecoterra Intl. and Rhino Ark. Angela is also a member of the Mount Kenya Wildlife Conservancy, WWF's Panda Passport and a Signature Member of Artists for Conservation, formerly the Worldwide Nature Artists Group
