Reka at sunset on the beach

Reka is a young artist based in Switzerland who has always been drawn to making things with her hands — painting most of all. She's had no formal training; picking up a brush is less about technique for her and more about finding flow, a quiet place to just be.

Her subjects wander widely, from moody, mystic scenes lit by lantern-light to a whole series dedicated to the life of a capybara — because not everything has to be serious to be worth painting. If her work makes you smile as often as it makes you pause, that's exactly the idea.

[Draft — to be revisited] In a world increasingly filled with AI-generated images, something made slowly, by hand, with all its small imperfections, feels more valuable than ever. Every brushstroke on this site is real — a record of actual time spent at the easel, not generated in seconds.

"All children are born artists. The problem is to remain an artist as we grow up."

— Pablo Picasso
