 I hear my mother say, -go – take your bike and come home with some wild spring flowers.
My garden is probably shaped of these memories, the idea of wild flowers, or going in the garden to pick a bunch of flowers for the breakfast table, no hybrids or exotics just locals. If possible . . . → Read More: Fruehlings Blumen Spring Flowers

Meet the Painter  Welcome to my blog. This is written for you my readers and you who collect my paintings.
Because you are interested in my work you naturally want to know more about the creator - me - and that is why I started to write a bit about myself and the person behind the art work.
I have my studio in Abbotsford B.C. Canada but grew up on the small Island of Sylt in the German Noth Sea, the beginning of my fascination with water and the sky.
Please, feel free to email if you have any questions or comments!
