Renate Seffer is a professional Artist who has been residing on the
Island of Grand Cayman for the past twelve years. With inspiration from
her Caribbean surroundings, Renate’s work is a combination of her keen
interest in local culture, her travels, love for the ocean, fascination
with colour and an intense imagination. With energy and
spontaneity, Renate's work projects raw emotion that allows the viewer
to peak into her creative and expressionist process, giving her the
unique ability to communicate through a universal language of colour and
imagery.
Born
in Melbourne Australia, Renate grew up the only girl of four children in
the coastal town of Hastings on the Mornington Peninsula. Talent wasn’t
lacking in the family genes and with her Czeck grandfather an avid
painter, her German father a musician and metal smith and her Scottish
mother a pianist and established fine artist, there was no doubt that
Renate would be destined to follow in their creative footsteps.
Acknowledging this was her mother who understood the importance of
nurturing in her an appreciation for the arts from a very early age.
