I also offer some different services, which I publish at this point. 

Art lessons for adults or students in Hamburg are more likely to be more interesting for Germans, so you can take a look at my German site for it or please ask, if I should translate anything about this.

I offer leadership and collaboration on artistic team events. I offer the following three examples as online group work, but I am also happy to work out something individually for you and your event. At the moment a team event is only possible online, after the pandemic also on site in/near Hamburg.

1.) Pop art portraits of the team members, exchange via emails and zoom instructions.

Team tasks: Send photos for editing, paint on/off according to instructions.

2.) Painted over digital work of team/company specific images with on/off/painting, exchange via emails and zoom instructions

Team tasks: Send two photos and logo for editing, which should be combined in one picture, paint on according to instructions or paint off.

3.) Editing photos on a theme / in a way, exchange via emails and zoom instructions

Team tasks: Select and edit one photo each with an app according to instructions, send for uniform printout, also paint if you wish

The exact elaboration of the offer is in progress and an info sheet with prices is being prepared. Please ask if you are interested.

I offer lessons or advice for painting and photographic art, in the broadest sense for everything you see on this page. As examples, I give topics and questions in the field of painting under my offer packages. Non-binding enquiries with an explanation of the wishes and problems, if necessary also with a photo, are initially free of charge and in case of lack of interest without further enquiry on my part. Preferably by email. These lessons could also be done in pairs or threes, the time per person will be correspondingly less. If required, I would also be happy to create another offer package.

Simple online counselling (€ 50,-):

• Exact clarification of the topic and, if necessary, information on preparation in advance, gladly by email.
• 40 min lesson/consultation via Zoom
• Later enquiry and answer, gladly by email

Online consultation supplement (€ 44,-):

• For all packages an additional Zoom consultation is possible afterwards, if this is not enough for someone.
• as an additional simple online consultation, on the same topic/image(s)

Triple online consultation (€ 130,-):

• More detailed explanation of the topic and, if necessary, information on preparation in advance, gladly by email
• 3 x 40 min lessons/counselling via Zoom
• Later enquiry and answer after each Zoom lesson, gladly by email, possibly with clarification of new topics or similar.

Examples of subjects (All painting techniques I practise and all motifs are possible, the subjects are very diverse):

'I have some painting utensils, but I don't know what is best to paint, how to place it, how to start and with what.'

'I would like to paint my dog from the photo and don't know how the rest should look like and when I should paint what with which tools.'

I have painted three pictures that I am not yet satisfied with. How can I improve them? What is missing?'

'I have pictures that are too flat and lack depth and are also weak and boring in color. What can I do there?'

'I would like to paint a landscape photo more abstract and modern. What are my options?'

'I would like to choose two pictures of mine to hang above the dining table. Which ones are best artistically and for the space? Are these ready?'

Examples for later enquiry:

'How/with what else do I do the trees in the background?'

'I don't like the table yet. Where is the mistake?'

'Is the difference strong enough now or what do I have to do there?'

'Which color is missing or should be replaced?'

'Why doesn't the bush stand out? Is there a shadow missing somewhere?'

'Do the pictures look that good there? Is it finished like that?'

I am also working on a weekly teaching offer for small groups, which will focus on one topic together. This means that my explanations and instructions are for everyone. Everyone can also learn from the challenges of others and some questions are unnecessary due to similar experiences. But everyone should also learn individual tips and corrections. Teaching on colors, shapes, techniques, color application, shadows, perspective, creating depth and structure etc. is included as needed. The number of persons, amount of lessons and the price depend on each other. It is necessary to try to agree on a theme, motif and a date with the enquiring persons. Participation can then be decided afterwards. So please enquire if interested! Also for other themes/motifs. I will then send an information sheet and collect the requests until a course comes about.

Number of people/hours: between 3 and 10 people, between 5 and 10 events

With emails, some written info, YouTube tips on this and zoom calls.

Topics: 

1.) Oil painting on photographs

2.) Acrylic painting with collage elements

As a graduate engineer (FH) in interior design, I am available for small projects or individual tasks in this field, especially in the areas of housing, gastronomy, hotels or ships. Possible would also be small 'online' assignments that only work via emails with attachments. Examples are:

• For new construction, relocation, conversion, room division etc.: Draft and implementation planning, if necessary also in interior and furniture design, or advice on the upcoming drafts/plans (of the trades and architects) and work.
• Checking of existing plans and offers from e.g. architects, sanitary and kitchen fitters, craftsmen or furnishers. Plus suggestions for improvement, recommendations for changes, detailed planning of individual areas (such as tiling, more lighting, wall views).
• Shopping assistance with advice for trades already mentioned, any furnishing equipment, wall and floor coverings, colors, materials or decoration. Or online research with concrete suggestions for these.
