This is the second part of my January-Résumé. By the way, at the end of January we had the first real snow here in Bremen – a beautiful catch of winter – the last one was in 2016 I guess (!!). So, I want to share my favourite motive with you first before getting backContinue reading “A piece of think-about”

“Kneipentour” Waiting For a Go!
This is part 1 of my little January-résumé. First month of the new year 2021 is just over and was pretty stuffed with bigger and some little projects. Actually, it was so fraught with work that I’ve been too busy to write anything last week :D!! But, never mind: work is good – it keepsContinue reading ““Kneipentour” Waiting For a Go!”
When the ‘Nähkästchen’ talks…
In German, in older times – when someone shared his/her wisdom, life experiance or talked about secrets – the saw “aus dem Nähkästchen plaudern”, 1:1-translation = “talking out of the sewing box” was used :). That saw was the subject of an art project in 2007, one year before my school leaving examinations. We hadContinue reading “When the ‘Nähkästchen’ talks…”
Afterwork Card Art
January 2021 is on its current and we had our first snow here in Bremen yesterday! OK – it ended up in plashy ice rain in the evening, but hey – at least a light sense of winter :)!!! I cannot emphasize enough how happy I’ll be when spring months finally bring back the powerContinue reading “Afterwork Card Art”
2021, hands on!
Hi there! Hope you had a nice, relaxing time – maybe spent a couple of days together with friends and family and enjoyed the tranquillity – as we did :). Now, finding ourselves at the beginning of a new year, it’s time to rethink, to set new focuses, to aim new adventures … One thingContinue reading “2021, hands on!”
The Prediction
“Every picture tells its story.” – words expressed by my former art teacher Udo Steinmann many years ago. In my gallery, you will find a self-portrait from the year 2006 I also created a blog-post for. I thought by myself, now, 14 years later (!!) it would be good to work at a current oneContinue reading “The Prediction”
Nudeside-down
2006 – I was 17 – my mom (see her here) asked me to paint a poster for the next summer semester of her dancing lessons waiting in the offering. It’s not that one you see above – due to COVID-19 I haven’t had the possibility to take photos from the works hanging at myContinue reading “Nudeside-down”
DRAW’N TALK
As I told before, for me the winter months are the hardest to deal with, especially when working on bigger projects like oil paintings. The colours seem to take three times longer to dry and it is a challange to use the short frame offered by daylight to be able to mix the desired shadingsContinue reading “DRAW’N TALK”
Monday-Me
I cannot definetely say if the day I drawed that portrait of myself in my sweet sixteens was a Monday – but as I promised to you guys some posts ago: from time to time I will also show you some of my earlier works. I can remember that it was a cold autumnal dayContinue reading “Monday-Me”
The Rainer
This weekend blog post is dedicated to a very special person. He is the one who offered me an opportunity which – I’m convinced of – will never turn again to my life like it happened in summer 2011. I was young, green and had no idea how to sell myself in order to getContinue reading “The Rainer”
