He then decided to study Fine Ars at the University "HKU" in Utrecht. After 3 successful semesters he came back to Cologne to go his own way, the university was too restrictive for his creativity. Since then, he has been living and working in Cologne Over time, Eric Hubbes developed his own personal style in which he related abstract and figurative painting. This also creates a play between geometric shapes and writing, which can be found in all his works. You could also think of these as fantastical worlds emerging from his subconscious. This idea arose mainly from the brooding that every person is inclined to. His main concern is to reflect the questions and ambiguity of our time in his pictures.
