How should I start…? You can´t say that painting and art were given to me at birth, even though you can find some professional artists amongst my family and ancestors.
You might say that I’m a late starter since it was just a few years ago that I bought my first set of oil colors. I’ve never attended an art school or taken any lessons. I am constantly learning by doing and reading.
What a journey it’s been! There is always something new to explore. Curiosity is my motivation. I am attracted to various techniques like oil colors, acrylic, etching, cliché verre, cyanotype, and rust.
I find the inspiration for my artwork close by. People and situations I experience, observe, love or even dislike. Therefore all of my work is somehow autobiographic. The motifs I choose are taken from the world that surrounds me.
The painting style is mainly figurative.
