With my paintings I try to convey happiness and pleasure; a respite from daily stress and anxiety.I was born in Germany and came to Australia in 1970 where it didn’t take long to be seduced by the beauty of my newly adopted country. The exotic flora and fauna that inhabit my work is a direct response to this captivating world around me. For me‚ creating art is a natural and intimate process which keeps my work fresh and spontaneous.
