Gabi Domenig was born in 1963 in Lienz - Austria. Since her early childhood she was attracted to the fine arts, but especially to painting.

She took classes in nude painting, color theory, drawing and composition. Especially charcoal, red chalk and pastels on paper and primedwood panels were the medium in the nineties. After her first exhibition in 1999, when she presented 20 large pastel paintings to the public, she began to paint with acrylics on canvas. The strong and bright colors and the way of working with acrylics approached very well to her nature.

She concerns herself primarily with the representation of man and especially of women. She tries to capture moments and to build up emotional tensions. The viewer should feel something of her passion when she paints. She does´nt want to stir up.  For her art should be life-affirming and beautiful, touching and connecting. A language without words.

Her characters send out varied emotions such as pride, pain, love, sadness, loneliness, joy and longing. They are sensuous, strong, vulnerable, thoughtful, dreamy, seductive, promising and cautious. The figures are mostely located in a particular environment cutout. The expression of the eyes should draw the viewer into its spell and animate him to enter in a deeper communication with the figures in the picture. Flowers, plants, animals, patterns and landscape sections are decorative parts, but are usually situated in the background. Because of her intensive color palette and the figurative painting she is attributed to the Neo-Expressionism. You can find her images in international artbooks, artmagazines and online art galleries.

2013 she was Winner of the Public Choice Award for her image „Paradise Madonna & Child II“ (Art&Beyond Online-Magazin/USA). 2014 she got the Certificate of Excellence for her image „SunnyDayTulips“ (Artavita Online Contest/ USA).

Participation in many national and international exhibitions in Austria, Germany, France, Italy United Kingdom, Brazil and USA.
