Take a tour through the world of images I have created, where I share not only my paintings,
but also my thoughts and sometimes comments about the technique I used to create them.
Are my paintings realistic, as people often tell me? Yes, in the sense that they mostly
represent something easily recognizable. But my idea is not a faithful reproduction of the
photo – “reality”. Rather I aim to depict the color, the temperature, the mood and the
experience of a specific place and time. I almost always use my own photos. I show the
painting and the photo side by side, because the photo as the first step in the process, where
you can see what interested me, but also how I changed it.
