"I started with one stroke with a large Chinese brush to create a puddle (a C-shape). While the puddle was wet, I imagined a landscape by the lake and painted a few minimal trees and bushes on the edge of the lake. As the puddle became drier, I used more pigment for the darker tones to give the landscape a bit more texture and feeling... and then[...]

Christian Evers is a contemporary German painter. His artistry embodies a unique blend of dynamism and serenity. He explores the delicate balance between stillness and movement within his paintings, aiming to convey a tranquil, silent presence within the vibrant strokes of his work.

Evers' artistic style is a captivating fusion of influences, characterized by dynamic, illustrative painting techniques that seamlessly weave together elements of Japanese ink painting and comic art. This fusion results in artworks that are not only visually stimulating but also deeply contemplative.

The transformative turning point in Evers' life came during a profound life crisis he faced in 2007/09. It was during this period that he discovered Zen, a practice that provided him with both access to and liberation from his inner struggles. Since that pivotal moment, Zen has become an integral and grounding part of his daily life, infusing his art with newfound depth and meaning.

Overcoming this crisis allowed Evers to gain a profound understanding of his own intentions as an artist. His personal journey, deeply influenced by Zen principles, guided him toward traditional Japanese ink painting. Like a sponge, he absorbed the essence of this ancient art form, reinterpreting it in a way that uniquely reflects his own artistic vision.

Christian Evers' artistic focus is primarily directed towards studio work and establishing a close connection with his customers. While he tends to maintain a more private presence, he occasionally shares his creations with a select audience through private exhibitions held at regular intervals. These intimate gatherings provide a glimpse into the inner world of an artist who has found harmony between life's trials, Zen practice, and the expressive power of his dynamic yet serene paintings.
