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.

gFoC – GEOMETRIC FIELDS OF COLORS


Within this series, I combine the worlds of geometry and color, based on photos of landscapes, industry & architecture. Myriads of layers of geometrical characters combined with harmonizing yet contrasting colors create a composition which directly reaches out and connects with our subconscious mind.


„One can understand nature only when one has learned the language and the signs in which it speaks to us; but this language is mathematics and these signs are mathematical figures.“ – Galileo Galilei

Geometric shapes influence us all, they surround us, and they can be found everywhere, in our towns and cities, in our houses, our streets, on every screen, in nature, even the human body and the entire universe. These shapes have an important effect on our human minds. They create connections, emotions and guide us through our lives.


„Color is a power which directly influences the soul.“ – Wassily Kandinsky

The perception of colours also affects our emotions and our minds. They are able to improve our mood, calm or stimulate us. Settled archetypes in our subconscious influence our behavior, our way of thinking and how we feel.
