Animal portraits, imaginative human-animal pictures and spirit animal paintings
With my animal portraits and human portraits, everything starts with an inner image: I often have inspirations from "nothing" - and they then want to be realized. You can find out more about the process in the video - and see many examples of my art on this page:
Collection: Spells (since 2025)
"Spells" is a collection of empowering phrases that I used to create one spell per painting. As I didn't want to simply write a sentence on the canvas, I created a symbol from each of the sentences (inspired by Sigils, magical signs). The symbol is accompanied by one or more animals and possibly a person that fit in thematically.
Visually, this series plays with contrasts between transparent, colorful figures and a mostly neutral, opaque background, some of which has been treated with textured paste.
Other artistic influences for this series come from tattoo design, as sigils are also often tattooed - as symbols of protection or strength for the respective wearer. So I have also created a tattoo design for some of the works.
The respective symbol is a sign of power and may inspire its new art collector every day. Only the buyer of the original painting will know the full phrase of the magic spell, as the phrase is written on the back of the canvas.
Collection: Alchemy (2024-25)
"Alchemy" unites opposites, such as contrasting states, seasons or symbols, each in one picture. Through the contrast, I want to give you the message: There is always more than just "black" OR "white". Everything exists side by side and it is always your choice what you focus on.
Turn pain into strength, hopelessness into confidence and excessive demands into clarity. The female figures and animals depicted in the picture remind you to become your own inner alchemist. You already have within you exactly what you need right now.
Collection: Mythology (2024-25)
"Mythology" revives old legends of gods and heroes and gives them a new lease of life. Because the myths are still alive today. In you, in us and in society.
I want to inspire you to find your own superpowers instead of just attributing them to the heroes and gods of the past. I combine the goddesses and heroines that I paint together with spirit animals with modern elements such as spray paint / graffiti style, collage and colorful ink to make them more tangible as symbols for people today.
The oil paints I use in my art also help to give the figures a lively character, which here and there almost looks as if they are coming out of the canvas and inviting you into their magical world.
Power animals (2014-24)
The spirit animal portraits are designed to encourage you to connect with your inner desires, strengths and talents. Animals carry such wonderful symbolism and each animal has a different message.
I don't see the term "spirit animals" in a narrow, shamanic sense, but rather that we can simply be inspired by animals. This means that if you repeatedly encounter an animal or have a particular fascination for it, it is worth asking yourself what this animal means to you individually and what qualities it reminds you of that you perhaps carry within yourself.
My spirit animal paintings connect you with this symbolic power and are designed so that you can draw meaning from them for yourself. But also a Set of spirit animal cards in which I link possible interpretations and messages of individual spirit animals with my paintings.
