Melina Hofstetter is an artist and workshop leader with many years of experience in painting. She has been passionate about drawing since childhood, starting with comics and mixed media. Today, her focus is on abstract painting, in which she makes emotions and stories visible beyond words. Inspired by her travels and diverse materials - including sand from all over the world - she creates works full of depth and expression. In her creative workshops, she helps people of all ages to discover their own artistic language. Abstract portraits of women play a central role in her own art - in the workshops, however, the focus is on what each person wants to discover and express for themselves.
