Berlin Based Professional Artist

Hey there! I'm Nadia-Valeska. I am so happy that you have stopped by. I've been living in Berlin as a professional artist since 2015, and it has been one hell of a ride. Before I came here I was living and working in Spain, where I also studied (with some stays in New Zealand, Italy and Chile). Originally, I am from Germany, but my family moved to New Zealand when I was just 10 years old. After graduating high school I packed up my things and went travelling, and working, to Australia and the UK, before I ended up in wonderful Spain to start my studies (eventually). I was so lucky to benefit from many different forms of teaching, as scholarships made it possible to study in four countries and at five different art schools. Although in my studio I work mainly with painting, I have learned so many different techniques and styles, tricks and hacks, which I do hope to share with you and make creating a little more fun and perhaps a little easier for you. Making art and being creative is one of the most important things in my life, and it is true what they say: The more you practice, the better you get! My great love is portraiture - people and faces just fascinate me! Since I can remember, I have been drawing and painting portraits, in all sorts of mediums, and my plan is to share what I've learned with you. Right now I am concentrating mainly on watercolour, because I feel like it's a really great technique and you can do it from anywhere. So, I hope you enjoy the content I will be uploading and putting at your disposal, and am always grateful for constructive criticism. To our creative time together!! xox Nadia
