working
methods and techniques
Coming from the
figurative-objective drawing, I create
semi-realistic works with variable ductus,
which partly follow a
concept or receive a statement through external and
internal influences.
Thematically, the focus is
on the human being,
even if he is not present,
objects indicate his presence.
I like to include socially
critical areas, but I don't have to.
Because sometimes a motif is
simply worth to be painted.
If an impulse inspires me to
a work, I try to realize it quickly,
therefore I prefer to work
with water-based paints (acrylic, dispersion).
On the one hand, this
benefits my rather fast way of working to capture
first ideas
but also allows me to make
changes to different works at the same time.
If current events support or
even suppress the first statement,
these can be incorporated
immediately.
So it can happen, that it
can take years until the final result
and also oil paints can be
used.
In contrast to the initially
fast work.
However, I do not limit
myself to conventional painting utensils,
I also use natural materials
like coffee, red wine,
Earth or found objects from
magazines, street stuff,
Packaging material and old
wooden planks as painting ground.
Graphic elements as well as
digital design possibilities are increasingly
finding their way into
my work.
