Master Joiner

The Artist

Being a joiner by profession, my talent for drawing has always been of great help. In this creative job, drawing and sketching are cornerstones for the design of a piece of furniture, or for the planning and the master design of a room.

With paper and pencil, I´m able to represent so clearly and convincingly the images I see in my mind´s eye, that the client can see my idea and the whole newly designed living room in a picture.

Consequently, it was only a small step toward my great passion, watercolor painting. The principle is the same: combining technical and artistic design, I commit to paper or canvas for the beholder the images that have formed in my mind. 

I´m an enthusiast of painting landscapes, pictures with architectural matters – in other words, motifs that relate to what I do by profession.

I´m often faced with the request to paint buildings – dwellings, wine cellars, etc. Objects with which clients have a personal emotional association.
