No, this blog is not dead :)
I just needed some time to produce something new...
Happy New Year's Eve to everyone!

back from Scottland

Loch Ness

The reason for the lack of new posts here is that I've been to Scottland during the last two weeks. I was walking and camping along the Great Glen Way. As you can see the landscape is really beautiful there! (In case it is not clear, this is a photo and not a painting & I did't change my style towards super-photo-realism :) )

myth

Just finished this one... I'm not quite sure that my original idea is represented here - but it doesn't really matter, since I'm really happy to use oil again!

no balance

After moving back home from Switzerland, I finally found some time (and an internet access) for my blog. Here I post some old oil pieces - which I could find in my flat.

"evil"

a very quick sketch inspired by this shot

I was sort of very snared by the bird's shape. However it might look not very evil , but still this idea is not mine.

an ancient idea

just some random stuff again...

metamorphosis

I don't really know what this picture is about. It just came up... so now I'm just happy to post something new, since I was quite busy last time.

conspiracy of liars

23x33 cm, 2009

Here is a more accurate version of "conspiracy of liars". Actually I have more ideas related to this, so some more things are to come... I guess, I'll do this one in oil in two months.

(yesterday I was somehow productive)

natural diversity

well, here is another strange sketch...

these two sketches are not very serious :)

SOLD

Just found accidentally a photo of this one. As I remember, I have sold it and was quite suprised by the fact that someone wanted to have it...

(sketch) old homeless man in the university cafeteria, 2009, black ink

This somehow sad scene is real. I usually don't reproduce real things. However, this is an exception. This quite old man is very often there - just sitting, sleeping or reading a newspaper. I'm not really happy with the sketch, but this is not the first try... maybe I'll paint it later.

free improvisation, 2006, 30 x 40 cm, oil on canvas

Just asked a friend to send me an image of this one. Don't remember the original idea behind it any more... Maybe I wanted to paint something very different and less abstract, but this came out. However, I like this one, which is not very usual, as I would think because of the colors.
