Ingrid Janowsky

Ingrid Janowsky was born 1956 in a little town in Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany as a farmers first daughter. She grew up in a sheltered village with cows and many other different animals, having pleasant work on the fields. She left her familiar surroundings in order to lead an independent life for the future. 

Step by step she expands her interest in natural sciences. She studied chemistry and pharmacy. Today she lives near Heidelberg, Germany. In 2005 she started painting on individually made poplar plywood surfaces, using acrylic paint and pastels. 2012 her everyday life changed by reducing her job as a pharmacist to get deeper into art, so to say: “The Metamorphosis of the Pharmacist". 

In the summers from 2015 to 2018 studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kolbermoor near Munich had an important influence on her. She was a student of the Zhou Brothers from Chicago on the topic “Feeling is Liberty". Since 2019 she is inscribed as student for drawing and painting at the European Academy of Fine Art in Trier. She likes to experiment with different techniques to expand her possibilities.
