Statement:
“The language of colors is unique and a means of expressing the entire range of moods and emotions. A deep passion for art drives me.If the viewers of the pictures are in love with life, then they see everything in colorful and bright colors. I particularly love creating pictures on canvases using acrylic paints using a mixed technique of different materials. The love of canvases has a long tradition that was started by many old masters. This tradition wants I would like to continue.
The magnificent colors of our nature and mother earth are the best inspiration for me. This variety of colors is hard to beat. As As a painter, I am very inspired by it. My works are diverse and colorful. Preferably My visions and inspirations can be implemented with acrylic paints and acrylic varnishes.My favorite technique is the pouring technique. I don’t use brushes or spatulas. All Works are created by pouring the colors onto the canvases. It’s a dialogue between me and my works.
I want to create something beautiful that touches the human soul and gives you joy and warmth in all situations. We forget far too often that not only our bodies but also our souls need nourishment.
Art is created when the soul speaks…
My pictures are my contribution to more warmth and joy on our planet, which we should treat as if we would live forever. Art is something magical. As soon as I see a beautiful work of art, it immediately puts me in a special mood, or rather ecstasy. I hope you too”.
The motto of my artistic activity is:
“Intellectual independence is a prism through which I see and create my works. As a free spirit, I let my colors have their will and freedom”.
