People

People are a beloved project for my artwork, but so far there are only a few of them. I use different materials, styles and expressions, with different themes.

I love to do live drawing with real models, and I’d like to do it more often.

Projects after the gallery

Note: there is a very special story with one of the artworks, that I placed on this page with respect for the person that it concerns. It is placed under “projects”, but of course it is not a project, but a very special way my artwork found a home.

First sketch on the canvas of
Woman with child
It was love at first side for the buyer.
The painting made her finally feel, what she missed
in her childhood: the love of a mother
A year later she died of cancer.
Her wish was to place an image of the painting
on the cover of her funeral card
The pastor wanted the painting in her goodbye service,
and placed it carefully on an easel.


It made me feel humble and silent

The family later took care of the painting
