Birgit is an artist, writer and teacher. She loves beauty, the depth of human emotions, and our mystical connection to the divine.

She is her most fulfilled and passionate self when she creates, no matter if it’s in her art, writing or every-day life; and she loves to ignite the same spark within others.

ART: As an artist she loves to work with black-and-white photography. Part of her artwork has been featured in several group shows in Houston, Texas, as well as in Arequipa, Peru. Birgit has had her first solo-show in 2010 in Houston, Texas. The titles of her portfolios: Reflective Presence, Goddesses or Earth Portraits signal her deep connection with nature and all of creation. Birgit enjoys to experiment not just in the darkroom, but with different media. She creates paintings, mixed media, sculptures, collages, and felted objects.

WRITING: Her first story called When the Gods Played Marbles was recognized at the Transformational Author Experience contest (conducted by Christine Kloser) in 2011. Birgit has been featured in Published! Magazine and interviewed on blogtalkradio.com/writenow. She is currently writing on her first book about art.

TEACHING: Birgit has been teaching visual arts within an educational setting for many years in Germany and the U.S.A. She holds M.A.Ed. degrees in teaching art and German language/literature.
