"The Golden Age" Painting

I was born in Germany as an American citizen and ever since both countries, the USA and Germany, have been my homes. At a young age, my talent for the arts was discovered by my mother who was a professional pianist. Also, my art teacher in school found me to be a natural talent and encouraged me to make more of my creative side. When I was seventeen I sadly lost my mother and this heavy blow made me determined to seek out the profession as an artist and shortly thereafter I enrolled in art school in Munich. Germany and the USA are my homes and I have done a lot of traveling back and forth. This helped my career, because I could get into the art scene of New York, Boston, Las Vegas and Seattle. Through contact with a friend I also have lots to do in Austria and created commissioned work for many clients including the Austrian State. Today I also have a music career that I successfully pursue. Generally I am a workaholic when it comes to art or music projects.
