Bio of the artist: 

 

Gesche Nordmann.

Artist, worrier of mother earth, adventurer. 

Deep roots of uncountable generations are connecting me to  Nordschleswig, the south of Denmark. Together with my husband Gerhard I am living here since 2017. We live near the baltic sea, at the edge of forest and near the beach. Our private base!

My ancestors were sailors, farmers, painters and poets and the members of my today family continue choosing these values of cutlure, language, art, and seafaring.

 

I grew up in a little village in Germany, called Hollingstedt. Both my parents were teacher, they were very creative and tought me in art, music, language and culture.

I always loved to paint and it was my deep inner knowledge that I always would be an artist.

After final schoole examination I studied at the University (pedagogics, agriculture) and after that 15 years of practical eco agriculture followed with an own farm, first in Neubörm, then in Desmerciereskoog, near Bredstedt in Germany, at the northsea. There we raised our 6 children.

In three years of study at the masterclass of the painter Hans Günther Hansen I was taught everything I needed to be an selfemployed artist. Günther Hansen taught me in various parts of art. Later I other teacher followed. To work continuous let me get where I am today, still trying to develope everyday.

 I became an artist, since 2002 I am fully selfemployed. My dream came true.

I am still connected to eco-farming, and I love to practice sustainable living. In thsi Blog you can follow me and I hope you are inspired:  Praktisch Nachhaltig!

In 2021 we will open the nordmannARTgallery in Bredstedt, Germany.

Maybe we meet there one day?

 

Until then all the best and love,

Gesche Nordmann, January 2021
