Title: Caprice Artist: Cameliero (Marina Schönemann, Germany) Era: After 2000 (contemporary) Medium: Mixed media — acrylic on canvas, final varnish Dimensions: 90 x 175 cm (unframed); 96 x 180 cm (professionally double-framed) Signature: Hand signed and dated by the artist, lower right Description: A bold, large-scale abstract work by German artist Cameliero (Marina Schönemann), a self-taught contemporary painter known for expressive, gestural compositions built from spontaneous movement rather than planned structure. "Caprice" is a striking XXL piece dominated by rich magenta and violet tones, cut through with sharp bursts of mustard yellow, slate grey, and a central explosion of raw white texture that anchors the composition. The artist's process favours instinct over control — colour and gesture applied with palette and brush in a free, unrehearsed flow, letting emotion move faster than deliberate thought while retaining the discipline needed for high-impact abstract work. The result is a piece with genuine physical texture and depth, not a flat print — built up in layers of acrylic and structural compound, finished with a protective varnish. Executed after 2000 on canvas, the work is hand signed and dated by the artist. It has been professionally double-framed to a finished size of 96 x 180 cm, making it a genuine statement piece for a large wall. Condition: Excellent — professionally framed, ready to hang About the artist: Cameliero is the working name of Marina Schönemann, a contemporary German artist who studied "Archaeology of the Greco-Roman and Byzantine World" in Göttingen from 1985 to 1989, and painted and sold art at fairs to help fund her studies. She is self-taught in modern painting, constantly experimenting between watercolour, ink, acrylic and oil, and prepares her own colours from raw pigments. She has sold over 800 works through online platforms, and her pieces regularly appear at auction on Catawiki and Barnebys. Her broader body of work is described as an attempt to step away from everyday social reality and represent pure states of consciousness — dreamlike compositions of escape, longing, and hope — where colour takes absolute prominence and form recedes into the background.
