Esther Brunner featured Artist


At 93, Esther Brunner has a busy life managing her large collection of paintings, preparing her next exhibit, and organizing her works for a retrospective. She exhibits in Zurich where she spends several months a year, and paints in Mouans Sartoux in the South of France. She complains about aging but has a mind sharper than anyone half her age.

Influenced by the works of Bonnard, who was a close friend, she has her own distinct decorative style. We were taken by a series of 3 night paintings which appear to be seen through her window. This one has been chosen for the cover of the upcoming Music for Dreams CD. The true colors are a deeper blue than what is seen on this page. The dripping blue paint and red accents remind us of the surprising themes and distortions that are the source of dreams.

Music for Dreams will be available soon at BlueSleep.com, and CD Baby.com. We will be featuring more works by Brunner in upcoming posts.

Listen, Relax, Dream, Sleep.
