This series of paintings is done with acrylic and rust. I love working with rust. You start out with grey iron drained in acrylic, and it’s not until a few days later through oxidation that you can see the final result, which is always surprising and out of my control. This is a very exciting process to me since the outcome of the different shades of rust is unpredictable.
Fortschritt (Progression) #1
Besides the technique the title of this series is called Fortschritt (progression).
Fortschritt (Progression) #2
But is every progression really one ?
I am not a radical environmental activist, but find the title to be some food for thought.
Fortschritt (Progression) #4

Veronika Pommer Artist Bio
I was born in Munich, Germany,in 1968. Then my family moved to Palatinate, a beautiful wine region in Germany, where I still live.
1988 – 1992 I studied at university/law school in Mannheim. I work as a practicing lawyer.
In the domain of arts , I´m an autodidact.
The techniques I prefer are: oil color, acrylic, etching, cliché verre, cyanotype, and rust. The style of my artwork, you could describe as figurative.
So far I had several exhibitions in Germany and France.
