EMPOWERING FEARLESS WOMEN THROUGH ART
Sophie's passion for painting began at the age of 6, whether it was on the walls of her nursery, doodling in notebooks, or even getting kicked out of class for drawing on her desk. Born in Berlin, Germany, she later moved to the US alone at the age of 16, not speaking any English.
Since settling in Los Angeles, she has become a renowned visual artist, muralist, and creator of custom sneakers. Her impressive client list includes Steve Aoki, Halle Berry, Clayton Kershaw, Dj Skee, The Bob Marley Estate, the NBA, the Simpsons, and Pizza Hut, among others.
Her artwork has been showcased at prestigious events like Miami Art Basel and LA's Sneakertopia exhibit. Sophie has found her place in LA, residing on the westside with her pet lizard, and keeping unconventional hours.
Her mother affectionately refers to her as a "Freigeist," a German term meaning free spirit, and humorously comments on her aversion to household chores, saying, "Free spirits don't take out the trash."
