Simona Constantin is a formally trained dental medicine doctor and former orthodontist. Growing up with a natural talent for painting and winning several art competitions in her childhood, she used her drawing skills in anatomy courses during her medical training, always being inclined to showcase her natural talents. Whatever she pursued, she always returned to her first love and passion. After years of practicing Art in another form in the orthodontics field, she decided to pursue her art career, becoming a portrait artist living and working between Germany and Spain.
Taking Instagram by storm and growing a remarkable following in a short time allowed Simona to share her inspiration and works with a vast community of artists across the globe and reach prominent collectors who were fascinated with her artworks.
She was always intrigued by faces and the emotions behind them, creating portraits in her signature style. Her body of work revolves around energy and inner introspection, and she portrays and explores that through the women she paints. Her large-scale canvases express emotions, and she manages to capture the viewer’s sight through her unique style, making him emerge in another world.
“Painting women has always fascinated me because they are the highest, purest level of emotion. My canvases have become a spiritual playground and my current goal is to focus on investigating the deepest inner levels of our beings and channeling them through all of these women, animals, objects, and entities that are juxtaposed, creating immersive stories for the observer and therefore challenging them to a deeper introspection.”
Simona exhibited in Vienna, Monaco, Madrid, and Qatar, to name a few, and her works have been published in several international art magazines. She is currently working on future exhibitions in Europe and collaborations with galleries and the luxury goods industry.
Her commission with the late Sheikh Ahmed Mohammed Al Ashmawi and his beloved mother, Mrs. Elly Al Ashmawi is currently in their private collection in Marbella, where she had the pleasure to install it herself.
Additionally, in the USA, her portraits are part of the private collections of The Ackerberg Group and the award-winning author and film producer Deirdre Allen Timmons. Simona’s works are to be found in permanent private collections across the USA and Europe.
Simona is working on her new collection, which will be available to collectors through direct commission and selected galleries.
