  Self-Portrait

  Finding the inner child.
  After completing this Oil painting on Canvas, 46 cm x 61 cm, I was in doubt if I should include a background. My mentor said “leave this painting alone!” not to touch it, it is finished, but she found that it was not me...

  Animation Hobbbyist

  I have been interested in animation from a young age. I’ve always wanted to make my creations move, and thought of every way to bring them to life.
  Stop motion characters, made from press-stick, moulding clay and cut-out paper, and flip book were the beginnings of experiments that would want me to dive in even deeper to see how far I can go.

  My Latest Style

  In my latest works I depict scenes of everyday life. The style, again inspired by a photograph I took while visiting Zurich in Switzerland. At the Zurich main station, scores of people were coming from and going to work. The motion blur of the moving people as well as my walking motion while taking the photograph created an interesting image that was the first painting in a style of work that progressed till today.
  Each inspired work is simplified and the contours come together to reveal a more realistic look when viewed from a distance.
