UTE KLEEMANN JOINS ARTTRENDS GALLERY
ArtTrends Gallery is pleased to welcome abstract, mixed media artist and collagist Ute KleemannSportschuetz to its roster of artists. A native German, Ute started painting when she was a young girl, with art becoming an important way for her to nourish, heal and connect with her intuition. Over the years, she attended art classes and workshops wherever she called home. She settled permanently on St. Simons Island in 2015 and is a member of Glynn Visual Arts, Golden Isles Art & Humanities Association, and Jekyll Island Arts Association. Much of Ute’s art focuses on colorful impressions and modern interpretation of idyllic landscapes. In her mixed media work, she combines acrylic paint, oil pastel, watercolor, ink, sand, cement, and collage layers. Her works fascinate with bright colors and their interactions with textural scenes and concepts, See them for yourself at ArtTrends Gallery, 3305 Frederica Road.
