Coming from an artistic family background art always played an important role in Uschi Lanier’s life.
But it was not until retiring from her teaching job and then moving from Germany to Florida in 2003 that she started to show her work while continuing her art studies.
Uschi’s preferred media are acrylic and oil. While her subject matter varies, most of her paintings are characterized by strong colors and great details.

Since living in Florida, Uschi has displayed her work in different galleries and public places, participated in numerous judged and juried shows where she won several awards. She also was part-owner of the Harbour View Gallery in Cape Coral until relocating to Leesburg, FL.
