My major themes in my work are the people on this earth. We are all living on this ball called earth. So it is a big responsibility to save this planet for our childrens. All children of the world, no matter which religion or color of their skins, must unite, to get a better world. I work with symbols like the ladder (awareness), the heart (love), houses (arrows to the sky). I want to paint the infinity, so that the humans notice, how fragile we are and how fragile the world is.

I have been painting in oil on canvas since i was 7 years old. My grandfather was an artist and i learned from him to paint in oil. Every year in the summertime i stayed in his house for 4 or 5 weeks and i was painting. Most of time we made copies of famous pictures from picasso, rembrandt or others. The older I got, the more we also paint my own ideas and impressions of my brain. I paint my big pictures in oil on canvas, and small pictures in water-color.

An important turning point in my life and in my work was a scholarship. I stayed for a month in Hungary in a studio-house of an Hungarian artist. I could paint in the studio, i could paint in a wonderful garden. And from this time it begins, that every square inch of my pictures became important for me. Before this, i saw the picture as a whole motive. Now, every little brush-imprint is important for me. The colors were little by little also restricted to the 3 basic colors of red, blue and yellow

Sometimes i make sketches for a big painting and sometimes I jump in. But the process follows its own way. Some paintings are going very fast and I am satisfied after 3 hours. With some pictures I spend a lot of time and sometimes the process extends to over a year until the picture has been finished. There is no difference whether I had sketches or not. When the picture is saying to me: “Now i have been completed”, …then my work is done!

A first big solo exhibition in different country from germany, namely in milano/Italy was a cool favorite experience for me. I present about 30 paintings and it was a very successful opening-show. A lot of people came and most of them were enthusiastic of my style.

I always work without music. I need the peace and silence to feel the totality and to get to my inner inspiration when I am painting. Without any deflection. I also have to be alone when i am painting. No persons, no sounds when I am painting. Just me and the colors and canvas.
