About Vita Schagen.

To create art is not merely to make a statement; it is to have a conversation. For me, painting is the most honest way to discuss what truly matters, bypassing the noise of the world to speak directly to the soul.

Like many artists, I am an introvert by nature. I cherish my inner sanctuary. But this does not mean I choose silence. Paradoxically, it is through the quiet act of painting that I find my loudest voice. My art allows me to open up completely, bridging the gap between my inner world and yours, without the awkwardness of spoken language.

We live in an age of quick snapshots, but my work is about something more permanent yet constantly evolving. My paintings are the archives of my life—emotional markers of who I was in a specific moment. I don’t feel that my art journey would be right for me if I were to confine myself to one style or subject. My artistic path is driven by a restless curiosity, and I embrace creative exploration. That is why my profile showcases a diverse range of styles, reflecting an insatiable curiosity and the belief that life is too short to limit myself to a single creative perspective. I find inspiration in every form, letting colors and moods guide my artistic journey.

If I look at a canvas I finished three years ago, I am often surprised. I wouldn’t paint it today because that woman no longer exists. Circumstances shift, perspectives evolve, and I am constantly shedding old skins to become someone new.

I share this evolution with you. Art is my relationship with the world, and I am endlessly grateful to those who value my work enough to hang it on their walls.

Whether my painting brings you peace or provokes a critique, it means the dialogue has happened. And that connection is the most valuable thing I have to offer.
