About the Artist

Already in early youth I painted with oil colours and learned by reproducing old masters (Millet, Lenbach, Vermeer etc).
After studying in the University of Karlsruhe I graduated as industrial engineer and worked in a technically oriented profession.
Since some years I found time again for the art of painting.

I have never committed to any style - I intensively experiment with different themes and techniques.
So I developed for example mixed media with lacquer and acrylics, I sometimes paint pictures with the drill machine and I performed an exhibition with haptic and olfactoric works.

After several regional exhibitions, I turned more to the online galleries.

Bereits in früher Jugend habe ich mich mit der Ölmalerei befasst und aus Reproduktionen alter Meister gelernt (Millet, Lenbach, Vermeer etc).

Nachdem ich an der Universität Karlsruhe mein Studium als Diplom-Wirtschaftsingenieur absolvierte, war ich in einem technisch ausgerichteten Beruf tätig.
Seit einigen Jahren fand ich wieder Zeit, mich mit der Kunst des Malens zu befassen.

Ich habe mich nie auf eine Stilrichtung festgelegt, sondern mit grosser Experimentierfreude verschiedene Themen und Techniken verfolgt.
So habe ich beispielsweise Mischtechniken mit Lack und Acryl entwickelt, Bilder mit der Bohrmaschine gemalt und eine Ausstellung mit Berühr- und Geruchsbildern durchgeführt.

Nach einigen regionalen Ausstellungen habe ich mich mehr den Online-Galerien zugewandt.
