Vita:
Daniel Wimmer is an Austrian painter. He comes from a family of artists in Salzburg, and was therefore surrounded by art and art books since he was a child. He became addicted to colors and shapes.
As an autodidact he had to learn everything on his own.
He get to know his craft by studying various books, the internet and he also took a lot of different art classes.
Techniques of Impressionism and Expressionism are to be found in his paintings as well as those of the old masters of realism and contemporary painters. However, regardless of the different influences, the dominant issue in his work always remain the human being.
I constantly get inspired by the human body. I especially love interesting light situations and skin colours.
The sculptural aspect is also very obvious in my paintings.
I hardly paint any details so that i can focus on light and colour.
I´m always playing with contrasts.
Warm and cold, light and dark, different structures and soft and hard edges. Sometimes they become more important than the subject itself.
That´s when the painting get´s an almost abstract touch. On the contrary i like to create an believable moment where the atmosphere almost could be felt. Therefore the viewer has the possibility to get lost in the scene.
Memories and associations are getting activated.
