Born December 9, 1958 in Wangen im Allgaeu region of Germany. She grew up on her parents’ farm on Lake Constance. She began painting all kinds of animals on stall walls and in her school notebooks when still a small girl. Her early attempts at nature studies later matured into a great exactness of representation which marks her pictures in crayon or oil, and her bronze sculptures. She finished school and then trained in agriculture. She was supposed to take over her

parents’ farm. Later she concentrated exclusively on her art. She married an avid hunter and fisherman when she was 23 years old, and from that time devoted herself intensely to painting, with an increasing number of exhibitions in the area of horses and hunting. After fifteen years as a free-lance painter with a large number of exhibitions, she now devotes herself largely to sculpture. The high point came in 1995 when Gabriele Haslinger was invited by then stud farm manager and art aficionado Dr. Wolfgang Cranz to exhibit her work in the museum of the State Stud Farm in Marbach, which was a great success. This was also her breakthrough. There followed exhibitions such as: Euro Cheval Offenburg, German Masters Stuttgart, Hunting and Fishing in Munich, Horse and Hunt in Friedrichshafen, Horse and Dog in Dortmund, IWA, Casteller Landhaustage in the Royal Castle Gardens in Castell, International Wildlife Art Exhibition Wild in Nature in Enschede.  It is quite justified to say that she is one of the greatest in this field. Her sculptures are unique in their expression and dynamic motion. Art connoisseurs say that here works are similar to those of Jules Méne, as well as the great French sculptor Isidore Jules Bonheur. She lives with her family and a great many animals on her parent’s farm.
