My paintings are created using an iPad and then printed.

Experimenting with different media is particularly important to me, which is why my works are further enhanced with acrylic paints. The brushwork varies from piece to piece, expressing the individual significance of the elements within the image. The delicate drawing is partially covered by the excessive application of paint. Upon closer inspection, each brushstroke is recognizable and can be appreciated for its uniqueness.

The intimate interaction between the different colors is significant: through this expressive application of paint, I give my works a completely distinctive character. At first glance, the portraits may appear perplexing. They are based on a distorted representation of reality.
Thus, the empty, lifeless expression leaves room for different interpretations.
