The female body, in all it's shapes, is always a big inspiration for me. I love the individuality, the small flaws making it just perfect.

Female faces are always a big inspiration to me. I enjoy especially drawing the eyes and this is what I start with. It is the most difficult part of the painting but also the most exciting to find out her expression, her character while drawing.

Life is all about connecting with what’s around us. Nature, family, friends and strangers. Sometimes you do not need words to connect, it can be a look, a gesture, a smile and you feel the connection within.

The painting “Tendre” is inspired by the Japanese concept “wabi sabi” which is about the perception of beauty. Accepting the transient nature of life, authenticity serves as a focus point of wabi sabi cherishes the cracks and imperfections. They symbolize the passage of time and loving use. Love as the antidote to a throwaway society built on disposable goods and mass-produced homogenous items.

In Asia flowers have a deeper meaning, and the Frangipani flower is considered as an essence from nature that brings enlightenment and kindness. There are so many frangipani trees in our neighborhood here in Bandung.

Every morning, very early, when the air is still fresh, we make a walk, and I love to collect the fallen flowers.

There are some things, that just smell so good: coffee, jasmin, orange blossoms, and frangipani flowers.

This painting is a lovely memory of my love for Java and frangipani flowers.

You’re with me wherever I go. A sensual sway embracing my sunkissed skin. Chasing the sun as it’s rising. Burning bright, cinnamon & gold. The horizon... wherever I go.

Die Sonne geht auf,
und der Morgentau enthüllt seine Magie.
Glitzernde Tautropfen
schmücken die Erde mit den Juwelen der Natur.
Ein Moment der Reinheit und Verjüngung.
Halten Sie inne, besinnen Sie sich,
und schätzen Sie die Schönheit der Welt.

Ich liebe den frühen Morgentau auf den Blumen und Feldern, die mein Zuhause umgeben. Berührt von den ersten Sonnenstrahlen, glänzen sie so hell und schaffen eine magische Atmosphäre.
