Karl Heinz Wenger:
Born in the country of Austria in the town of Grimseldorf the son of a operator of a coal and heating oil company, he would have followed in his father's footsteps had it not been for a painting he gave his aunt. She convinced Heinz's father to allow him to pursue art. Austria is perhaps the country that has produced the most outstanding art and music of the past 2000 years. Mozart, Beethoven, Strauss, Haydn, Klimt, Moser, the names can fill the page. Point is that the art atmosphere continues to produce wonderful artists that follow in the footsteps of the former masters.
Karl Heinz Wenger, has dedicated his life to the art of painting. He makes his own paint to the specifications of the painting that he is creating. In Austria some artists are permitted to make a replica of the priceless works in the museum. Mr Heinz is one of those chosen and he endeavors to recreate the paint specification used hundreds of years ago by the masters.
In Vienna he is legitimately commissioned to make replicas of the museum pieces. He also creates originals primarily of flowers. Most of his subjects are the flowers grown by his lovely wife Maria in her garden near a small lake in a beautiful area near Vienna called Burganland. In our view the most beautiful flower he chose is his wife Maria.
