Informations about the artist

I create beauty and visualize it in my own universe. Its beauty and emotion as I see it and feel it. The human in and around me are a constant source of inspiration.

It is these stories that touches me. Painters of life, thats what these stories are. Stories that feeds me, fills me and eventually become one with me. I talk to you in a language without words, by using symbolism, color, light and shadow.

Its a visual language which let you feel, flourish but also let shiver. In this world of silence and serenity, tension and sensuality, grief and irrationality, I show you humankind and the complexity of life. It is this complexity - the splinters of life - which captivate and fascinates me. At the same time my work shows hope and new perspectives for an unknown future.  A new awareness excists, it is the possitive message in my work.
