I am...

"I am dancing with insanity, and I love to rock'n roll
I am satans secret sorcerer on the lookout for your soul". ( c. Manfred Marburger)
Actually I'm an artist possessed by the creative process: the only time I am not creative is when I sleep, art for me is a release as well as a constant questioning of my own personality and the space around me. Thus my artistic interest leans very much towards "the artist as psychologist". I like to deal with outward expressions of inner feelings in a more or less realistic way ("Condition Restless"). Another "morbid" interest I nurture is in places where time has left her signature: "bleeding" houses, "fragmented" buildings, landscapes with scars......

About my artwork

I like my art to be like rock music....confront viewers ..... make people think....... react. My work covers various topics (Black Eros, Peacock Park, Automatic Drawings, Victims and Sinners, to name a few) and I use a variety of techniques within my work to achieve my aim.

Artists I like

Too numerous to mention, I have to point out that I like artists for different reasons, some have great ideas, some are technically brilliant. When artists combine the "right" technique with their ideas, genius shines through.

Interests

Art, Music, Reading, Films

If you wasn't an artist, what other Profession would you do?

Never thought about anything else .......
