About the artist

Born in Berlin and having lived my youth in Bavaria, I created icons from a very young age, without a model to make greeting cards Having had the privilege of living in ; In Rome, I discovered the beauty of Rome. of the great painters of the Renaissance, who never stopped painting. to inspire and influence me. Then came to Reims, the Champagne countryside introduced me to the charm of a wine-growing country, which, with its harvest festivals, has nourished my desire for nature. Returned since 1984 to In Paris, I explore both the modest painting galleries and the major exhibitions. World music concerts also strongly stimulate my imagination. During multiple stays in Italy, both in Italy and abroad. Florence or elsewhere Venice, I am intoxicated with exhibitions and meetings with painters and musicians. My creation concerns works with a unique touch. halfway between naive figurative and emotional symbolism. My paintings are essentially narrative and give an element of dream. I start with a simple drawing and I let myself be carried away by a sort of spontaneous writing. in order to translate emotions. Lover of words, colors and music, I seek to discover new things. translate words into images, make the colors sing.
