CAPTAIN CANVAS
Vintage Canvas, Futuristic Visions
Past Meets Future on Canvas
Hi, I'm Miriam Schimka. With a heart for nostalgia, I discover old treasures in flea markets and attics. I transform them by painting robots, spaceships, and superhero tales, breathing new life into these forgotten pieces. Each canvas carries its own story, a touch of vintage charm, and often original frames with patina. Find more artworks on my instagram account. Prices on request.
