Biography .... a never destroyed, creative artist soul.
In Kindergarten I spent more time in front of the easel than all the other children.
In primary school I was renowned as having a talent for drawing - but
for me to put pencil to paper it was purely to pass the time of day,
until I was actually aware of my artistic capabilities and so decorated my bedroom with self made posters.
I had to paint untold amounts of T-shirts with the "Che Guevara" counterfeit for my friends.
At family festivities I was encouraged to bring a portrait of the celebrating individual.
For a long time I painted with acrylics on cardboard, - as for me to paint with "Oil on Canvas"
was only for the "Artistic elite" and thus was something " s a c r e d ".
The profession as technical draughtsman was only chosen as " d r a w i n g " was involved.
My creativity which ran parallel to my career did not suffer.
Whether working as Technical draughtsman, Detail designing Engineer or Signwriter
in my spare free time as a young family man,
I still produced paintings which found a place in joint exhibitions with noted artists.
In the mid 80's I received an invitation to go to " The A c a d e m y of F i n e A r t s " in Vienna
I was 30 years of age when I asked myself the question " What do you want to do in the future ?"
The International " One man shows " and the attached success gave me the answer.
Many exhibitions have I had
Many paintings have I created ( approx. 720 )
Many wonderful people have I been allowed to meet.
I have wandered through many " h i g h' s & l o w' s "
To savour the moment where another person is so fascinated from my artwork
that he wants to call it his own, is my intention.
I live to paint - and paint to survive
