I have always been attracted by landscape and environment. In the last few months my focus is entirely on seeking for my own perfect BLUE. I take photos whenever I see my favorite nuance in combination with something striking and remarkable. Clarity interacts with nature views and astonishing shadows and shades. I love to use almost only primary colors and mix them. My impressionistic style allows me to mix colors also directly in the painting progress on the surface. Unexpected and surprising moments are the most meaningful aspects for me. I paint for example with oil on old stainless steel sheets I found in our home workshop. I’m currently experimenting with masking tape to maintain the stainless steel’s shine.
