Biography

“Life is colorful” I have titled one of my pictures, and my life is also colorful. The hours I spend in my studio I feel as a gift from heaven.

Colorful is my favorite color, in which I change my soul state

reflects. For me, painting is the soul’s wandering through the world of my feelings, the feeling for colors, which, depending on the constitution, I tend to choose unconsciously. At the same time my love for experimentation is by no means in the way. With great curiosity, I observe the creation of a work, be it on paper, wood, canvas, metal or glass.

The secret of my work is not to force anything, but to let it arise. My hands are the tool of my soul.

Since the colors speak to me, I always make the right choice. When the time comes to finally sign a work, an inner voice tells me. This can sometimes be relatively fast, but can take months. Sometimes I spontaneously stop painting when I see in eyes that can not come from me.

Anyone who deals with my pictures has the opportunity to send his imagination on a hike. He will always discover something new.
