Hello,

I like to introduce myself.

I’m a German artist and painter. I used to paint in oil but I had the opportunity to live a few years in China and used the time to study Chines art by an old Chinese master. Therefor my focus is now on traditional Chinese painting.

I love to share my art and also see yours.
