Originally from Schleswig- Holstein, Germany, Silke ‘s talent and interest
as a painter began while admiring her great grandmother Vala Lamberger’s
highly skilful portraits.
Although a busy Osteopath for 30 years, Silke has made time to train
extensively under the tutelage of many well known artists in watercolour and
pastel together with new, life drawing and portrait projects. This recent
work incorporates both figure and flower elements in full height stature.
Silke’s work is noted for its vibrancy and reflective perspective and these
elements within her studies have led to many successful exhibitions in
London, Essex and Germany.
