About the painting: This vibrant and whimsical painting captures a surreal scene set in a charming European street, heavily reminiscent of Paris. The central focus is a beautifully detailed zebra confidently walking across a pedestrian crosswalk—a literal and playful interpretation of a "zebra crossing." The background features a lively street scene filled with bold, saturated colors. To the left, a quaint café with a bright red-and-white striped awning and deep blue doors stands out, complete with a small outdoor table and chairs. The street itself is painted in soft purple and lavender tones, leading the eye toward a classic blue vintage car parked in the distance and the iconic white domes of a cathedral, resembling the Sacré-Cœur, rising against a pale blue sky. A tall, classic streetlamp and pots of blooming red flowers frame the right side of the composition, adding to the picturesque and dreamy atmosphere of the artwork. The contrast between the wild animal's black-and-white stripes and the warm, colorful architectural setting creates a delightful sense of wonder and magical realism. About the artist: My name is Corina Madalina Schröder. I was born in Timisoara, Romania, in 1969 and grew up in the Satu Mare region (Transylvania). I came to Germany at the age of 43. I lived and worked there in Bad Säckingen am Rhein until 2023. The direct proximity to the Swiss border, the central location in Europe and the diversity of the people there gave me many creative influences and so I painted in a very modern and lively way and was able to present my pictures in many exhibitions. (including Germany, Belgium, Italy and Switzerland). In June 2023 I moved with my husband to beautiful, sunny Spain, to Benijofar, south of Alicante. Here, strongly influenced by the wonderful sea, the great light, the friendliness of the people and the Mediterranean atmosphere, my passion for painting received new impulses. I love painting. Even as a child, I was fascinated by using pens and brushes. I always went forward courageously, learned a lot and my artistic talent was born into me through my mother, who was a painter and art teacher. So I started not only painting but also creating all sorts of things. Be it sewing, knitting and modeling with clay. I love individual design and today especially expressive painting. Especially in today's fast-paced times, where people are quick to evaluate and harshly comment, I find it particularly important to be able to calmly and calmly indulge in the joy of one's own creativity. Without “right or wrong” but just completely ME... Since the beginning, my works have been exhibited in several german and international exhibitions, art salons and galleries, such as: Brugge, Madrid, Venice, Bucarest, Basel, London, Paris etc...
