Sibylle Thebe

Sibylle Thebe. 'Flowers & Oranges on a Blue Tablecloth' 2011. Oil on Canvas.

As a painter Sibylle Thebe reacts to the world around her, and she does so with all the rich treasure of art history in which she is at home. She interprets the music she hears, the books she reads, and just the images she sees every day.
