As an artist, I am allowed to capture the magic of the moment that surrounds and touches me. When the resulting work of art succeeds in allowing the viewer to share in the artist's experience, connection is created.

In this way I create access points, impulses, sensations, inspirations, reflections and offer insights into the world, that reveals itself to me during the creative process.

It is never an image, a theme, a message that initiates, stimulates or inspires my work - these only emerge as my creation progresses.

It is never the goal to create something predetermined, or predefined. I only recognize at a certain point in my work the image that wants to come into being and I give it form. It is curiosity, anticipation and the excitement of what will emerge that drives me. The fulfilling sense of happiness comes from fully immersing myself in the moment - in the colors, textures, shapes, and flow - and discovering, what comes to light and to let myself be guided. Body, mind and creation merge; the sense of time and space dissolves, and like a birth, what already exists comes into the world - something that began to be much earlier and has its origin elsewhere.

​

Thus, from delicate tangles of lines or pointilistic acrylic structures, my angels and animals appear upon completion. During the creative precess, I silence all judgment of mind.

Although my Art has evolved over the years (since 2008  angels have appeared), my self-taught acrylic and ink techniques have become more refined, they are all clearly recognizable as my own. Since 2019 alongside my angels, more animals and humans and fairy tales have appeared, and the color gradients have also chaned. The intimacy and tenderness are the essence 

I do not search - I am found, and together reality is created!

My paintings are often accompanied by poems. The words and sentences form during the creative phases and come together as a whole.

My Fine Art Angel paintings are unique in the world - and knowing that they touch, move and inspire fills my heart with joy.
