During the last twenty years my artistic expression has moved from pure abstraction over figurative painting to a combination of those two different genres. I use acrylic paint, pigments, and oil colors in my present works. My abstract figurative motifs are inspired by nature, Africa, roots, trees and studies of human nature and interactions. Sometimes I work from sketches, at other times I am guided by my emotional memories. Clear processes change with chaotic creation – often in the same work. It is like gambling. The losses allow me to search, exchange, experiment, fight and in the end reconcile and discover. It is of lesser significance to me to present an accurate image of an object in the artistic process of creating my works, but of paramount importance to present an emotional expression leading to a human element revealed in forms, colors and lines.
