"157 abstract landscape" Painting

I am an German-based Artist for contemporary painting and drawing. … I am born in Stralsund, in the north of Germany. The colors, the air and the light of the north, the water in its different forms have always fascinated me. After graduation I studied mathematics and art at the University of Erfurt. It is very interesting for me to connect both areas. After graduation I worked as a teacher of art at high schools, as a lecturer at a college of design, as a designer and illustrator. it is not easy to say what my particular passion is. I love painting and free drawing as much as the possibilities of digital artistic work on the computer. I am fascinated by the geometrically constructive and playful work in the 3D area as well as the possibilities of image processing and animations in 2D / 3D. In painting I am particularly interested in structures and surfaces. Structures and textures of landscapes, rocks, stones, water, trees, plants, etc. They are transient and constantly changing. Everything is on the move. In my representational painting, i try to clarify the moment of authenticity and from the individuality of characters and situations. Then, every detail is important to me, which makes the character of the sitter experienced. My passion for photography originated with the possibilities of digital photography. When photographing, i enjoy the calm and concentration on the essentials and the emotional expression of nature in its changes. Here, for me, there is again the connection to painting with its formative colors and shapes as well as to the design with light and materials in 3D-constructions.
