The interaction of lines, forms and colors has always fascinated me more than anything else. Whatever I observe around me, I analyze and reduce it to these basic elements. People, buildings, landscapes and objects are stripped of their concrete forms and abstracted to their essences.
I have drawn and painted for as long as I can remember. I have to work in private and try to be very conscientious. I’m not easily satisfied and most critical for myself. Often, I put a painting or sculpture aside for some time and pick it up later to make changes or even to repaint or remodel it entirely. I will never part with a painting or sculpture which is not finished in my eyes.
When a painting or sculpture is finished, it needs no words to be explained.
