2025 WORKS

At the moment I’m mainly selling my paintings at my shop on etsy.com. I’m exploring other possibilities.

AWARENESS OF BEING

Oil on panel

2025

40 x 40 cm

€270

My first foray into surrealism. This was inspired by an evening trip to Heidelberg castle. A partially crumbled castle structure induced a case of pareidolia. For this painting I paint a clearer profile of a person than what I saw at the castle. And added the juxtaposition of the crescent moon to complete a humorous image.

LET’S ALL MAKE BELIEVE

This is a series of paintings that depicts imaginary landscapes with stylised colours. They are partly inspired by the years when me and my wife lived on a hill top in the town of Tübingen. It was about 500m from the sea level. While that wasn’t particularly high, we did have a different perspective of the sky.

This was inspired by a group of Egyptian Geese I came across during a bike trip with my wife along the Mosel River.

IT’S GOOD TO BE FREE

Will be made available to be purchased in due course.

I don’t usually like to paint tourist attractions, but I make an exception for the statue of Die Bremer Stadtmusikanten. Since we moved here to Bremen a couple years ago, I have mentally pictured it many times on a rainy day setting for a painting.

EVERYONE IS DREAMING SOMETHING

Oil on linen

2025

55 x 46 cm

SOLD

The street in this painting is Via dei Penitenzieri in Rome. I was in Rome for a day during a trip to Italy in 2023. I took some photos on this street because I really liked the colours and the rustic look of these buildings from a different time with giant windows and doorways.

I added the kids chasing soap bubbles to create a dreamy, almost surreal, scene. That was inspired by seeing kids who were really enthralled by soap bubbles made by street performers, somewhere else in Italy. The small stature of the children also creates a contrast with the huge openings of these buildings.

THE DREAM BELONGS TO THE DREAMER

Oil on panel

2025

49.8 x 49.8 cm

SOLD

This was inspired by a late afternoon walk on Ostertosteinweg in Bremen, where I have been living for the last one and a half years. The colour of the sunsetting light was an eerie orange. I really liked the atmosphere that that created. I added the characters that are somewhat unusual and out of place to create a dream-like feeling to the work.
