”As a little boy I loved to draw while sitting at the gigantic wooden desk of my grandfather. I drew everything around me like stones, mussels, buttons, coins, plants, birds and clouds. This was my own way to discover the world. Now five decades later I still draw and paint with the same fascination observing the inexhaustible wealth of forms and colors in our world. Last week I was impressed by the shimmering light on an old leather sofa, yesterday I marveled at the beauty of wrinkled skin around the eyes of an woman and today I was amused about a flock of crows fighting over a walnut. Thus every day I always find new ingredients fort he next drawing or painting. Then working on it I combine different techniques of drawing and painting as well as themes from classical mythology and the Renaissance with my own experiences and perspectives.”
