about

TEREZA TANZER
B. 1998 | Oil Painter
Tereza Tanzer is a self-taught oil painter originally from Prague, Czech Republic. Now living in the quiet Scottish countryside, she finds inspiration in its expansive skies, shimmering waters, and ever-changing landscapes. From her small cottage studio, she embraces a slower, more deliberate way of living—one that allows her to fully immerse herself in the process of creation.
Tereza’s artistic journey began during a time of personal and professional burnout. Having come to Scotland to pursue academic and career goals, she found herself at a crossroads and turned to painting as a way to reconnect with herself. Oil painting, with its richness of colour and contemplative pace, became her medium of choice. It offered her the space to make intentional decisions and let her love of texture and movement flourish.
Her work focuses on expressive, semi-abstract landscapes, brought to life through thick, textured layers of paint applied with palette knives and brushes. Each piece invites viewers to experience the essence of a place - the mood, the energy, and the quiet moments that linger.
Tereza’s vision extends beyond her art. She hopes to build a creative community for those who value meaningful connection, slow living, and the beauty in life’s smaller details. Her paintings are an invitation to pause, breathe, and reflect - a call to rediscover life’s magic in the everyday.
With aspirations to share her art internationally, Tereza welcomes collectors, curators, and individuals who appreciate work that tells a story and stirs the imagination.
