Sylvia Sanders

Portrait of Sylvia Sanders in front of her artwork, colored

For over three decades, Sylvia Sanders has devoted herself to painting with passion and dedication. Her preferred form of expression is oil paint—a medium she masters. Her works playfully move between abstraction and representational art, demonstrating an extraordinary range of artistic expression.

What makes Sylvia Sanders' work special is not only her fine sense of color, form, and composition, but also her tireless drive to experiment and explore new paths. A few years ago, she began working with a very special natural material: saffron. Through intensive experiments, often lasting months, she developed a technique for permanently combining the precious spice with oil paints—without losing its characteristic luminosity. The result is a fascinating interplay of color depth, radiance, and material sensuality that lends her works a unique aura.

But Sylvia Sanders' artistic cosmos encompasses far more than just oil painting. She is equally enthusiastic about the lightness and transparency of watercolor techniques, spontaneous drawing with crayons and pencils, and constantly exploring new creative experiments. Her openness to materials and methods is reflected in a work that is vibrant, surprising, and constantly evolving.

With each picture, Sylvia Sanders tells her very own story – full of colors, emotions and a deep connection to nature and the creative power of the moment.
