Beginning:
I started to develop a great interest in art at a very early age. When I was about 6 years old, I received private lessons from a recognised painter in my home town of Amberg and was thus able to immerse myself in the world of landscape and portrait painting.
At the age of 13, I began to hone my talent as a portrait painter with Adrian Dika in Erlangen and learnt new techniques. I have always been fascinated by people and all their facets, especially in combination with art. That is why I have focussed on portraits.
Intention:
I want my art to amaze people, move them, make them think and, in the best case, draw them under the spell of portrait painting. Through the diversity of my techniques and painting methods, I want to show the viewer how art and people can harmonise with each other and offer a certain aesthetic that will not soon be forgotten.
​
Technique:
I combine at least two techniques in my paintings. The motifs are usually created spontaneously and often depend on my emotions or the current mood. For example, one portrait can appear very dramatic and offensive, while the other portrait radiates lightness. The painting technique is then also decisive. The deep black acrylic glazing technique often has a very dynamic character and leaves the viewer plenty of room for their own interpretations. The watercolours are usually concrete but still mysterious and unique in their own way.
Motivation:
Work on your art, because the more you work on it, the more character and charisma you give your works.
