Reflections Painting

For as long as I can remember I have loved colouring, drawing and painting. When I was young my grandmother gave me a pack of marker pens with the usual colours but also cerise and turquoise ones. I loved these markers! And even now a large box of pencils or markers grouped by colour from yellow to green to blue to purple to red makes me very happy. Perhaps this is why in my most recent work I increasingly return to colour. Although nature is an important source of inspiration, I value the freedom to paint whatever strikes me. Working with the essential colours of my subject enables me to reflect its heart and soul. Resulting in abstract work, this approach nevertheless suggests a landscape or space. Apart from various painting and drawing techniques and materials, I also use my photos to achieve an authentic image. In addition to my autonomous studio work, I teach beginners and advanced learners to paint with acrylics while sharing my passion and my creative pleasure. With my expertise I inspire my students to discover and develop their own style of expressing themselves. My motto is that art provides life-long pleasure. It makes a house a home, the workplace a positive working space; art relaxes, increases your flow of energy and makes you look at the world with different eyes. Alongside passion for my subject, I nourish quality, originality and skill. My core values are creativity, sincerity, authenticity, spirituality and freedom.
