Pleinair Painting at Hof Butenland & Hilals Schafaltersheim 2023

From 17.09. to 23.08.2023 I was again at the farmed animal sanctuary Hof Butenland and painted some of the animal residents*innen. Subsequently, I was still 2 days to paint at Hilal Sezgins Schafaltersheim.

It was partly very windy and cloudy, which made the plein air painting an even greater challenge. The results can be seen here soon: https://en.hartmutkiewert.de/sanctuaries/

Here are a few impressions of the painting:

“The position that non-human animals occupy in our cultural imagination is proof for how easy it is to accept the lower status of some beings without even a second thought.”
