DIGITAL PAINTING


Through digital painting, I merge traditional craft techniques with innovative technologies to create a fascinating artistic experience. With the help of pressure-sensitive pens on state-of-the-art graphics tablets, a new dimension of creative design opens up to me.

The enormous variety of brush shapes and sizes offers me an almost infinite repertoire of expressive possibilities. Each brushstroke carries the nuances of my hand movement and the print, while the digital canvas always remains immaculate and flexible.

Working on different layers allows me to combine different styles and techniques and overlay layers of properties to create complex and multi-layered works. These three-dimensional artworks are created not only through the illusionary depth of digital representation, but also through the depth of my artistic vision created by the fusion of old and new.

Digital painting allows me to push boundaries while preserving the essence of traditional art forms. It is a process of discovery and innovation where my imagination is fuelled by the infinite possibilities of the digital world.

fDoI – FLOATING DREAMS OF IMAGINATION


Based on travel, architecture & industrial photography, in this series I create countless layers of lines & shapes to create 3 dimensional spaces & worlds that deal with the visualization of our dreams.

Sigmund Freud, the inventor of psychoanalysis, saw in dreams clues to hidden desires of the sleeper, which are suppressed in the waking state and then satisfied at night in dreams. Freud described dreams as the „royal road to the unconscious“.

Carl Gustav Jung, the founder of analytical psychology, also attached great importance to dreams: He sees them as a level of communication between the conscious and the unconscious.

„People have always been fascinated by the vivid, often bizarre imagery of dreams“ – Günter Harnisch
