Artist Statement:
CITYSCAPES - LANDSCAPES - NUDES - PORTRAITS
I don't believe in longwinded manifestos. The paintings can speak for themselves more honestly than anything I could say.
I am a realist painter. My aim is to grasp the beauty of the contemporary world around me.
I create paintings corresponding to my idea of how a painting should look like. This idea is readjusted with each painting I see.
I only paint things for which I have a strong emotional attraction. I have always been fascinated by cities, so I love to paint cityscapes. I am also drawn to landscape painting. By their very nature, paintings done en plein air must be completed fairly quickly, before the light changes. The best plein air paintings have a spontaneous quality that captures a moment, or offers a fresh insight into a familiar scene. Besides all this I paint portraits. I consider portraiture as by far the greatest challenge for a painter.
