Portrait of the artist Anne Samson

Anne Samson

The artist Anne Samson, who grew up in Düsseldorf, Germany, found her way to painting at an early age: already during her art studies under Prof. Max Imdahl and her subsequent work as an art teacher, she dealt with different painting techniques and themes. Nowadays, Samson works passionately as a freelance artist in Witten and regularly participates in regional exhibitions.

Her works are nationally and internationally popular. Anne Samson's main inspiration is the painting process itself, in which she plays unselfconsciously with colour and motif. She usually begins without sketches or concrete plans. The results are expressive paintings of numerous glazes, layers and overpainting, which are created over a long period of time and slowly develop. At the same time, they are expressing a positive attitude to life and her joy in artistic work.
