As an artist I feel a deep connection with nature, and especially with the sea.

 

I live close to the coast and every walk along the water gives me new ideas for a painting. The power and movement of the waves fascinate me.

The play of sunlight on the water, creating endless shades of light and shadow, continues to appeal to me. The sea, always in motion, offers an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Sometimes I see the wild power of waves that burst in an explosion of water and then briefly find their peace again. Other times it is the calm of gently rippling water on a sultry summer evening that envelops me in a serene silence.
