About the Artist
Uli Kapp was born and raised in Germany, and the architecture of her hometown, and many trips to Italy during her upbringing, influenced what she loves to paint. She is inspired by European artists like Hundertwasser, Klimt and Klee. Art has been part of her life from early childhood. She had some formal training at school, and her style is self-taught and developed over time. Painting and expressing, what she sees and feels makes her happy. While playing around with paint and brush strokes, she creates energizing paintings from her imagination, or from photos, with her interpretation and bold colors, layers of layers of acrylics to create a certain effect. Occasionally she paints with oils on canvas, and mixed media.
Her profession in health and wellness as a professional reflexologist and associated polarity practitioner, has a big influence in her artwork. Her intention is to make a positive difference in people’s lives and to achieve wellness.
Uli integrates balance and flow into her artwork and her life. Her artwork is a healing tool for her to bring inner balance and happiness into her life and others. She is a rowing enthusiast. As an active master rower and coxswain, she spends many mornings on the Merrimack River and enjoys the sunrise, the different looks of the river in all kind of weather situations. She gets inspired by the water, the birds, the clouds, the energy of every stroke in the boat. A resident of Andover for over 20 years, she is president of the Andovers Artists Guild.
