Born December 15th, 1944 in Felixdorf, Austria. Lived in Vienna until 1964, then moved to Stockholm, Sweden until 1968, subsequently emigrated to Canada in 1969, living in Calgary and moving to Lethbridge, Alberta the following year.Initially influenced by Surrealism, I later followed the Vienna School of Fantastic Realism. I am listed in the Who's Who Section under Honorary Art Patrons of the Society for Art of Imagination. In January 2009, I founded the Private Visionary Art Network. Some of the worlds leading Surrealist, Fantastic Realist and Visionary Artists are members. I returned to Vienna, Austria in 2011. My former studio was at the Palais Palffy in Vienna where my studio neighbor was Prof. Ernst Fuchs, since 2015 my studio is at the Kunstquartier Wien in Meidling Some of my art is in the collection of the Province of Alberta, Canada and also the Nickle Arts Museum, University of Calgary, Calgary Alberta.
