Artist Bio
Photo of ~ WenVal ~
~ WenVal ~ 44 artworks | 2 Sold

Art is my lifelong escape and greatest joy. At 72, I believe the true beauty of creating lies in total freedom—forgetting the rules, ignoring the pressure to sell, and painting for the absolute pleasure of it.

Driven by pure intuition and late-night inspiration, I often find myself awake at the easel until dawn. Because I value complete creative independence, I even handcraft my own sturdy, custom canvases using a router and circular saw from scratch.

Lately, my creative journey has evolved into the fluid world of abstract art. For me, painting is not rigid; it changes constantly, and I want my work to reflect that openness. I intentionally paint pieces that invite individual interpretation, leaving the viewer with complete authority over what the artwork symbolises.

I don’t want to dictate what you see or think. Instead, I want you to have true ownership of the piece when you look at it. My ultimate goal is simply to share the thrill of creativity, spark a sense of personal wonder, and bring a lasting feeling of joy and pleasure into your home.
