I've always been fascinated by the effect of colors in the beauty of creation. I wanted to depict people, landscapes, and details in their uniqueness. First, it was photography, which I passionately began at the age of fourteen, through which I could capture these images. Later, painting came along, allowing me to capture this expression even more clearly. My dream of becoming a professional photographer has been fulfilled since 2003, through exhibitions, book projects, corporate and private photoshoots. This was followed by exhibitions of the paintings and sales to collectors. First in my studio apartment in Potsdam, then in galleries and other public spaces.
With my painting, I want to simplify complexities and share the joy of life.
I love large formats that are impressive in large spaces, but smaller works also have their own special effect. With my idea of "art in a piece," each work becomes part of a larger whole – the buyer can determine the size of their artwork themselves and thus create their own connection to my art.
I often paint with my whole body, usually with my hands, because this allows me to bring even more emotion into my work. I continue to work on a painting until the desired effect of the color composition becomes apparent to me.
Each of my works is part of an open-ended story that evolves in the eye of the viewer. I invite you to connect with the paintings on a personal level and discover new things for yourself.
