THE HUMAN

"I work with colours and brushes since I can think"

And that´s the way a never ending journey of discovery started. Almost three decades later, my enthusiasm
had matured and until today I reached to improve and perfection special techniques that I discovered
´learning by doing´ by myself as a result of my passion to experiment. I like to mix different styles, to mix
abstract elements and concret elements, to mix traditional elements and revolutionary elements for to get
to a syntheses of contradictions and correspondences. The first really important paintings I created after
my daily work as a adviser at night and on weekend Nowadays I spent more and more time painting.
In comparision to my former paintings , that were rather informal, I reduced the contrast of colour to give
more importance to the surface.

The lines of my paintings seem to be the result of a spontaneous act but in fact each of my paintings takes
weeks or sometimes months to be completed.

Nowadays I am living in Hirschberg near Heidelberg and in my studio there I have all I need to realize works
of distinction.

I am always conscious of the surroundings and the rooms where my paintings finally will develop their effects
on the persons contemplating them because it is the person who is watching my work whose opinion will
decide if it is a godd work or a bad work I´ve done.

You are interested?

I am looking always for rooms that are appropriated for the exposition of my paintings.



	THANKS A large portion of my inspiration I owe to my dear wife. I estimate their praise and their criticsm much. Thank you
