Artist Statement:
IF YOU LIKE THE ARTWORK, WE
WOULD LIKE TO INVITE YOU TO
PLEASE SIGN UP FOR THE EMAIL
OPTION.

I predominantly use pen and
ink, colored pencil, crayon
and acrylic paint on paper or
canvas to create art, which
educates or I am focusing on
the ‘feel-good factor’: Do not
underestimate the effect of a
glance at a piece of art. As
one may make you angry,
another one may sooth your
mood or spark a feeling of
happiness. And that will
effect what you do in a
positive way. But what does it
require to initiate a certain
feeling? Whereas
neurobiological and
psychological research
provides some answers,
intuition plays still key role
in my exploration of the
connections between colors,
shapes and emotions.

Commissions:
Most commissions were either
house/estate portraits or
portraits of people.
Whereas the estate portrait
focuses more on what is (or is
important to the person, who
lives in it), the people
portrait can be done in two
different ways: The two
extreme ends are mind
portraits and physical
portraits.
