From my parents strongly encouraged in learning creative, artistic expressions, it is for me a primal need to be constantly sensitiv for and inspired by the wonder of life and to express the perceived in diversified new creations. Likewise, it is for me from childhood on a need to inspire those around me to the sensitive, inspiring perception of life and the joy and collective empathy lying there in.
The drawing and watercolors, as well as the observations of the nature are the roots and everlasting source of inspiration for my artistic work. A fixed style or a preferred technique are not pursued by me. It is more a journey with the goal much to experience and learn. Entering new unknown paths invites again and again my creativity. At the crossroads of these ways then I see the underlying similarities and fundamental principles.
