Pond shore

The impressionist painting shows a peaceful scene on the banks of a pond surrounded by lush vegetation. The densely overgrown bank only takes up about 20 percent of the picture and is covered with various plants and shrubs. These plants are in soft, calming shades of green and create a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. Most of the picture is dominated by the reflection of these plants and the shore on the smooth water surface of the pond. The reflection emphasizes the harmony and tranquillity of the scene. The colors in the reflection are as soft and subtle as those of the shore, creating a cohesive and harmonious image. The overall image conveys a sense of stillness and serenity, as the calm tones and gentle reflections invite you to immerse yourself in the natural beauty and tranquillity of this place.

Cassis - Plage du Bistouan

The motif, the view of the beach “Plage du Bestouan” in Cassis. The beach is my favorite place during my stays in Cassis. The foreground is dominated by the massive limestone cliffs of the beach, washed by the powerful waves of the sea. The spray foams and splashes dramatically, the movement and energy of the water are clearly perceptible. The bay stretches out in the middle ground, its turquoise waters glistening in the sunlight. Cap Canaille, the landmark of Cassis, rises majestically in the background. The steep cliffs catch the light of the low sun. The colors fade slightly in the distance. Cap Canaille is like a protective wall framing the bay.

In the botanical Garden 2.

This motif also comes from the botanical garden in Augsburg (Germany), the picture shows the beautiful flower border in late summer. I am constantly refining my impressionistic painting technique.

Delphinium & sage

The painting is my last work (end of March 2024). The motif comes from the botanical garden in Augsburg where I was visiting my family last year. It shows the delphinium and sage flowers in a border. I think that a rather uninteresting photo has not turned into a bad painting :).

SPATIAL GEOMETRIC ABSTRACTIONS

With these paintings I have begun to deal with the spatial forms. In the first place I look at the composition of the individual and possibly more or less complex groups of geometric shapes, then I determine whether the shapes are transparent or opaque. The whole is rounded off with the selection of colors.
Decisive for me is also certain reduction of the selected colors and surfaces.

The Red Line

The recent events at the national and international level and the behavior of our politicians have inspired me to paint this picture. Almost all politicians and public figures constantly talk about a red line that should not be crossed, but are the first to cross the lines.

New Abstract Paintings - in ACRYL

Due to the cramped conditions in my studio - too little space to dry the oil paintings, especially the large formats, I have thought to work with the acrylic paints and at the same time to paint the large formats without stretcher. As thought, so also made and here below the first three acrylic paintings. I have continued here the series of Geometric Abstractions, first of flat fields with reduced color palette. In addition, I have in mind to incorporate a three-dimensional depth and possibly perspective in the abstract images.
