27 Realistic Silk-Themed Oil Paintings by Kathrin Longhurst

Kathrin’s work reflects her diverse cultural background, as she lived in many European countries before finally settling in Australia in 2000. Kathrin grew up in Communist East Germany, where she started taking life drawing classes at age 14. Her work is strongly influenced by socialist realism and communist propaganda art. Kathrin spent a decade in Scandinavia, visiting galleries in Denmark and Sweden, as well as a year in Belgium, where her work gained its Art Nouveau influences. She traveled extensively through Europe, Asia, and America. I hope you like these beautiful oil paintings.
