Detail abstract painting Sigrid Bedeer : title You and me
Abstract painter, interior architect, traveller, cat lover
and proud mother of a teenage son.
For me, abstract painting is clearing your mind and operating from your feelings. Feeling what is present in you at that moment, letting go of everything and putting your emotions on canvas with full abandon.
I started my career as an interior architect at an architectural firm in Antwerp. My love for details, colours, structure, perfectionism and coordination talent, gave me a rich learning experience ...

A new space, new light, new inspiration and energy, ... I love it ❤️

Expo at VIZIER culinary studio in Edegem
Vizier is a Culinary Atelier founded by brothers Wim and Ben Bruininkx. They followed their dream and in May 2024 they started their own business in the center of Edegem.
Quality, creativity, craft, experience and taste is what the brothers stand for. So a colorful touch to the clean white walls could not be missing. They chose a soft green painting with a lot of depth that fits perfectly with the other green touches in their business. The food there is also delicious and already extensively tested. Nice match, right ?
Location : Mechelsesteenweg 52 in Edegem
When : from March until the end of 2025
Expo at ANNEMUZE in Kontich

New painting 'UNDERWATER LOVE'
Painting created on commission for a father with 2 young daughters.
“The love between father and daughter is intense and unique. Sometimes you think you go head over heels and don't understand each other and sometimes it comes naturally without words. Turbulent waters were also during the painting process. Many layers and doubts passed in review until it suddenly made sense (to me).
Title abstract painting : 'Underwater love'
Acrylic on canvas
Dim. 160 x 80 cm

"Thanks to Sigrid's giveaway I had a super nice experience today. Together with my daughter Bianca 4h abstract painting. Freedom happy and let yourself go with paint. Spacious studio with all materials within reach. No restrictions on what you can and cannot do. It was really a super day with a golden edge for which I thank you 🙏🧑🎨🍀”

"Now that the hectic Christmas week is slowly subsiding, I can finally really enjoy your beautiful artwork. Lounge music and a good glass of wine complete the moment.
Abstract ? Sure, but with so much dynamism, so much life, movement, the unmistakable wave motion ... the beautiful accents of metallics. The color palette of bright red-orange through the full turquoise. Hues that evoke different memories.
Walking in with the work, I caught a glimpse of the title: “underwater love.” Recent moments in private, made this very confronting ... I wondered for a long time, “how come?”, but you really couldn't know, it dates from after our conversations. Nevertheless, it struck a very sensitive chord.
If art can/may touch you deeply, this certainly succeeded! Now that the dust has settled, I cannot imagine a more beautiful painting on the wall. It is the organ point on a beautiful story ... an extra dimension that makes it that much more intense."

“I bought a work from Sigrid. In fact: had it made. I am not artistically inclined myself, which meant a big threshold for me to talk to a professional about it. But with Sigrid everything went so smoothly! She took her time, understood what I meant, didn't judge me, asked questions that I obviously hadn't thought of. Result: a fantastic work now hangs in my living room. Forever grateful !!!”
For me, abstract painting is clearing your mind and operating from your feelings. Feeling what is present in you at that moment, letting go of everything and putting your emotions on canvas with full abandon. The result is sometimes amazing and cannot be predicted in advance.
Below you will find an overview of my abstract paintings, for which you can request a price without obligation.
If you too would like one of my unique paintings and want more colour on the wall in your home or office, send me a message and we will look at the options together. Whether you’re thinking of something large or small, with bright or softer colours, or alternatively, we could discuss a completely bespoke work.
All my works are for sale and can be viewed under the heading Artshop. If you would you like to come and visit in my studio in advance, that can also be arranged !
I also give workshops in my studio in Hove. The Workshop 'Let your colors shine' is about daring to choose and combine colors, following
your feelings and daring to make mistakes.
If a work resonates with you or stirs something in you, I would like to hear from you.
