What is art

Often art is explained as follows:

"The word art (Latin ars) describes in the broadest sense every activity developed by people that is based on knowledge , practice , perception , imagination and intuition ..."

My pictures are usually very colorful and express the abundance and beauty of creation.

I get my inspirations through meditation. I paint intuitively and the process of consciously painting is even more important to me than the picture itself. My intention is to paint uplifting pictures. Often I let myself be stimulated by an inspiring thought, a text fragment or a philosophical quote and when looking at the resulting picture I am reminded of what the origin of the picture was.

I tailor the techniques to what I want to express. I use oil paints, watercolor, gouache, colored pencils, wax and watercolor on wood, paper or linen.
