Curriculum vitae
I, Susanne Augstburger, was born in Munich in 1963 and have been living in Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm since 2017. As a young adult, I pursued an apprenticeship as a photo lab technician, which provided me with an introduction to color theory and laid the foundation for my understanding of colors. Even in my childhood, I was closely connected to vibrant painting. To further develop my artistic skills, I participated in various private art courses and pursued self-directed studies in painting, where I found my own style and expression. The further education as a media designer at the Macromedia Academy in Munich expanded my creative repertoire, allowing me to explore various techniques and media for my artworks. Since 1994, alongside my main role as a civil servant and advocate for the disabled in the public sector, I have also worked as a freelance artist. This dual role enables me to pursue my passion for art while maintaining stability in a professional environment. Art exhibitions and engagements: From the outset, I have regularly showcased my artworks in various cultural venues. Additionally, I have been invited to participate in charity events where my pieces were auctioned under prominent patronage. Continuous professional development and exploration of digital mediums have been instrumental in the evolution of my artistry.
