About the painting:
This is a vibrant and colorful acrylic painting featuring an English Bulldog as the central subject. The dog is sitting upright and looking directly forward, perched on a large, plush leather armchair. The bulldog is realistically rendered with its characteristic wrinkled face, floppy ears, and a white and tan coat. It sits majestically in the center of the frame, commanding attention. The scene is set in a brightly lit interior room with strong Mediterranean coastal influences. The dog rests on a warm, cognac-brown leather armchair adorned with classic brass nailhead trim along the front edges. The walls are painted a vivid, deep cornflower blue, featuring vertical wainscoting. To the right, a large tropical potted plant with broad green leaves adds a natural element, sitting in a blue and white patterned ceramic pot. To the left, a small wooden side table holds a lit lamp with a white shade. Hanging on the wall directly above the bulldog is a framed landscape painting that depicts a sunny countryside with rolling hills, tall cypress trees, and a small white villa, hinting at a Tuscan setting. The floor is made of warm terracotta tiles, with bright yellow patches of sunlight cutting across the room, creating a strong contrast with the blue walls and casting deep purple shadows. The painting uses bold, expressive brushstrokes and a highly saturated palette dominated by complementary colors—the cool blues of the walls contrast sharply with the warm oranges, browns, and yellows of the armchair and floor. The overall mood is cheerful, warm, and whimsical, combining a sophisticated interior setting with a charming and dignified pet portrait.

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...
