I am fascinated by both figuration as abstraction. That's why I like to make portraits as well as abstract work and I rather not want to restrict myself to only one specific art form.

In my free work I like to experiment, which quite often results in a multi-layered painting. Much deliberating, changing things, adding things until I am satisfied with the result. My goal is a powerful painting.

My portraits I make with much fun and satisfaction. During the process I feel I really get to know my subject, which makes portraying so interesting. Not only the resemblance and the character of the portrait are important. I want to make a painting, that intrigues and is well painted.
