My love,
my story
Alessanara
I am a painter, illustrator, and designer living in Leipzig, Germany.
In my wonderful studio, surrounded by peace and my plants, I create artworks on canvas that bring out the magic of the animal world. Here, in my little creative sanctuary, I am inspired by my colors, animals, and nature around me to build a perfect bridge between humans and nature. My goal is to evoke joy and mindfulness for the beauty of our world with each painting.
WHY I LOVE MY WORK
My inspiration is everywhere: in books, the captivating images in films, the lightness of walks, and the deep sounds of music. It's as if I discover small treasures in every corner of life, bringing them to life in my works. Painting, for me, is far more than a creative expression – it’s a way to communicate with the world, to understand it, and to attempt to preserve it. Every brushstroke, every color choice is like a breath that draws me deeper into the magic of my craft.
I love losing myself in my paintings, surrendering control and fully embracing the flow of colors and textures of animals. It feels as if I am slipping into a meditative state, where time stands still and only the here and now exists. These moments are filled with a special calm and joy, where I am entirely with myself while creating something that transports viewers into distant, colorful worlds.
Artist support
My art is born from passion, a love for nature, and a desire to create a deeper connection to the animal world. If my work brings you joy and you’d like to support me on my creative journey, I would be grateful for a small gesture in the form of a ‘cocoa.’ Whether it's a small thank-you cocoa or a ‘cocoa for the artist’s break’ – every bit of support helps me continue my art and bring new projects to life.
Here, you can treat me to a cocoa and become a part of my journey!
