I am looking forward to spending a week in Graubünden from Saturday, painting on an alp 2100m above sea level in the Safiental. I have been lucky to be able to do this for several years now. Its absolutely wonderful. I will be adding my collection "Mountain Worlds" to my webshop in August/September. Let me know if you want a sneak peak!

I am deadly serious about being an artist. It is a world still governed by men. My art is female. I am a woman. However, is it any less valuable for that? The pressure to conform to life as a woman - concentrate on your home, your children - is huge and comes from women just as much as from men. Especially in rural Switzerland. To want to succeed as a female artist is not really something anyone would gladly own up to - the first question I am always posed is, "can you make a living from it?" Would you ask a male artist this? Can I as a female artist paint flowers? Or am I then conforming to being a woman? 

So thank you for reading this, thank you for supporting a female artist.

Two great opportunities to buy art to freshen up your walls: 
17th June – 31. July "Love London" ATELIER Sibylle Laubscher, Arisdorf & online on www.sibyllelaubscher.ch 
30th June - 28th August:  Galerie Carzaniga, Basel celebrating 120th anniversary of the Swiss Society of Female Artists (SGBK). 

I will paint you or your pet if you are in London from 2nd - 20th May - ONE slot for painting is OPEN!

New collection coming to my webshop soon. "Spring is here" so you can enjoy the happy feeling spring flowers impart indoors and all year round!
