Artists for Painted Dogs and other Wildlife

Carina Kramer

I am fascinated by wildlife. That seems quite obvious, but I really mean it! Everything about those beautiful creatures from anatomy and behaviour to the sounds they make captivates me.

In my artwork I am seeking to express that deep admiration and weave it into a sometimes delicate and sometimes rather painterly picture of what I see.

My work is always realistic, so that my audience – yes, that´s you - can relate and get a glimpse of the marvelling appreciation I find myself in.

When I paint wildlife, I feel like part of the wilderness rushes through me leaving me in an admiring, peaceful and curious mood. That process is often reflected in the style and the brushstrokes I use. Especially in my oil paintings there seem to be areas of painterly excitement and others, which I approached in a more gentle manner. My watercolours on the other hand require a very soft and patient attitude since they involve a lot of thin and delicate layers.

All this grew over several years of self-study beginning at the age of 8. By then I had just moved near a small nature reserve close to Hamburg, Germany, where I still live today. I started consuming art books and soon joined some casual painting lessons for about a year. 2019 I got the fantastic opportunity to go to Africa and become a Field and BackUp Trails Guide, which had a huge impact on my relationship to the natural world. The desire to support the protection of wildlife has been at the center of my work right from the start and I am honoured to have been a finalist in the renowned annual Wildlife Artist of the Year contest (2017-2020) and join the Sketch for Survival exhibition with two 100% donations. Becoming a member of the Artists for Conservation society - " the world´s leading artist group supporting the environment" - in May 2018 and being a finalist in the esteemed Arc Salon (Art Renewal Center) in 2018 + 19 are both two milestones in my career as well.
