"Your life is as colorful as you dare to paint it"
A small journey into the past
I was born in beautiful St. Johann in Tirol in 1986 . Tourism and gastronomy were literally born in my cradle and I wanted to gain a foothold in this industry. So after graduating from high school, I started studying tourism management at a tourism school.
India, Nepal and Australia
But I was drawn out into the world. I followed my gut feeling, stopped studying, packed my backpack and went traveling for six months. One of the best decisions of my life. Impressions, experiences and insights from countries like India, Nepal and Australia continue to inspire me to this day.
Suddenly everything was different
Back from my trip around the world, my life was about to change suddenly. Because on February 3, 2008 , I fell so badly on my neck while snowboarding that my 6th cervical vertebra was shattered and my spinal cord was severed.
Since then I have been paralyzed from the shoulders down and can no longer move my fingers, among other things.
A new way of life
Since that day that changed everything, I have been on an exciting journey to myself.
To more mindfulness , love and fulfillment . And to creativity .
That's how I discovered painting in 2011. Through them I can fully develop and live freely. My pictures are colorful, playful and radiate optimism and positivity .
My art
I have personally experienced how dark and sad life can be. That's why my motivation is to create joy in life , happiness and positive energy through my art spread and make the world a little more colorful make. My colorful works focus on the beautiful and what makes you happy.
I have already been able to exhibit internationally in galleries and at art fairs, including in New York, Paris and London.
In 2014 I was awarded the Kitz Award for my achievements in contemporary art.
Rollin'Art was born
As an artist and creative person, I was always looking for new ways to put my pictures and drawings on a wide variety of objects. So I founded a company in 2014 . Rollin'Art was born.
At Rollin'Art we print my cheerful works of art on magical gift items, colorful fashion and special decorations for the home.
Rollin'Art has now grown into a small company. Our online shop allows my team and I to ship all of our treasures across Europe. In our magic workshop we manufacture and print almost all items from our wide range ourselves. With love from Tyrol.
Thanks to our know-how and enchanting creativity, we are also the perfect partner for companies and businesses that want exclusive, unique items, collections or collaborations .
Mother's happiness
With the birth of my son at the end of 2021, I was able to experience what unconditional motherly love feels like. This little sunshine fills my heart with joy, light and warmth every day. He shows me the world through his children's eyes - full of fascination, curiosity, openness and lightness.
The fact that I can be a mother is the greatest joy for me!
My colorful life
In addition to my art, I really enjoy giving lectures about my life and topics such as resilience, mindfulness and gratitude. With my story I would like to encourage you to believe in yourself and hold on to your visions.
In my blog I write about my everyday life, what inspires, moves and motivates me. Of course, about travel, accessibility and a bit of creativity shouldn't be missing.
I have built a large community on my social media channels that accompanies me through my life as a mother, entrepreneur and woman with disabilities.
