About The Artist

I was born in Salzburg, Austria, in 1980. My childhood and youth were shaped by nature and by creativity. Therefore, art has always been a part of my life and I dedicate myself with devotion to my paintings and sculptures. Art has taught me to pay attention to details, to be calm and listen to my inner self - nobody is able to create a piece of art who is in a hectic pace and thinks of something completely different. Currently I work in my studio on the city limits of Salzburg, at the foot of the mighty Untersberg. Art has long been a part of my life and I am devoted to my paintings and sculptures. My interest in fine arts was encouraged and actually awakened by my drawing teacher. From the age of 15, I have been intensively engaged in the visual arts. As an artist I am self-taught, so I have not graduated from an academy of fine arts. In addition to canvas works executed with a variety of techniques in acrylic, oil, charcoal graphite, etc. and sculptures - which are mainly made of wood and iron - I deal among other things with nude drawings, silver jewelry, logo and tattoo designs and have already illustrated two children's books. Since 2001 I also exhibit publicly and internationally and have already been nominated for various awards.
