For a period I develop the motiv in my mind, always captured by a moment. I take my own photos for reference, or just imaginary pictures in my mind. I always strive towards beauty, even if the expression is complexed.
I am confident that other expressions will unfold as my journey continous.
When I have selected the artwork I wish to work on, the process is natural and flowing.
Preparing the materials, grounding and sketching, often alternating between more than one project. Painting in layers, regardless materials, oil, watercolour, or other. Sometimes very detailed, sometimes abstract with quick brushstrokes/scraping. I am always looking for the light, wishing that the viewer of my artwork mirrors that spark within themselves.
Enjoy!
