Shanghai Skyline
 City-Shapes: I have travelled a lot in my life. Having seen so much of the world in the past s inspiring me to
paint beautiful places and cities with a happy, positive note. The architecture, strukture and sould of each city
fascinates me - and that's what I paint. People are not important in the paintings. The world has much to offer so there
will always be places for me to paint in lush colours, lined with thin black lines.
 Abstact/ -ish works: I started with abstract constructions on canvas while living in Tokyo in the 90's.
Abstrations are intriguing me. After moving from Japan to England I continued there with a small series of abstract works using rubber.
In 2010 I found lots of inspiration in Brussels and through a Graffiti workshop in Aachen. I am combining the newly learned techniques in the series of "Brou-Xelles" works, the "YOU" series and the brand new "Cosmopolitan Affair" series.
 Winturbines & other paintings: After moving from London to Germany in 2001, I started with figurative paintings. The huge, monsterous, elegant windturbines in the German country side inspired me to do a whole series about them.
In another series about my time in Japan, I expressed myself in Kanji words to describe my life there using only a few key words.
I also started with portraits, where I firstly used the black-line technique which I am now using on my City-Shapes paintings.
During my time in an artist-colony in Poland I discovered oil and nude painting...
 "YOU" Series: The YOU series is a combination of figurative style & the black-line style from my City-Shapes, mixed with the abstract "Brouxelles-Technique", blended with some Graffiti elements.
At first glance the paintings in the YOU-Series look as happy and positive as my City-Shapes or abstracts -but at
second glance it is clear that the works are rather violent, aggressive and disturbing. One needs to take a close
good look to actually see what really goes on.
