There are many possible interpretations and stories for the picture. It contains a variety of contemporary themes, relationships with nature and the emotional world. I deliberately want to leave these things open to everyone, but I am also happy to discuss them.

Fall 2023

Another commissioned work has been added to mixed activities. It is a composition of three customer photos: one of a couple, one of a person and one of a sailing boat. They were merged, digitally edited and changed in color, given effects and then printed out. Subsequently, accents were added with acrylic paint on the canvas (with shadow gap frame) in 80 x 80 cm and the sky was further stippled and filled. Here you can see the overall picture and details. The faces have been made unrecognizable.

Summer 2023

 These months I have been working artistically mainly with photography and image processing, especially with ICM photography, which creates blurred images with camera movement. I'll be adding them to the website soon, which I'll note here.

 

Two commissioned works were edited and finished. One artwork was created from a small painting with oil painting in bright colors. I took a suitable section and worked on it further, such as changing the branches and making them even more contrasting and bright, and also painted it digitally. The "Glowing Michel" was ordered as a 150 x 50 cm print behind acrylic glass.

 

The second picture "A-N-LOVE" is a digital composition of customer photos and a Berlin photo of mine. All four photos are integrated and further processed and somewhat alienated with other colors and effects. Due to lack of time, it remained a pure photo work with digital art and also some drawing, which was sent directly to the customer. The faces are made unrecognizable here.

Wishes and specifications before the work:

Composition of 4 photos: 1 couple photo, 1 couple of a group photo, 1 x the university building and 1 Berlin photo of me (for Sir Norman Foster fans). This also digitally altered and alienated in approximately this color scheme with a somewhat painterly effect. It is a wedding gift in 40 x 40 cm, connected with a story, printed on Alu Dibond with a digital signature.

 

The client:

"I came across Nica Art Studio for the creation of a personal, individual picture gift. After a phone call in which I described my wishes for the design, Nica took on the job. The collaboration was great and always uncomplicated. NICA contributed her ideas and also took my image design wishes into account. The results of the constant coordination were always delivered very quickly. The time frame was very short, yet everything was implemented perfectly as requested. It was a relaxed but focused collaboration. I am extremely satisfied with the result and will certainly contact Nica again if required."

4th of May 2023

My painting "Hamburg Mix" will participate in an auction at an event of the HAMBURGER ORIGINALE. The proceeds will go to climate protection measures of the participating organizations of Auction for Climate Action. It is a work of 10 photographs and an airbrush layer, digitally composed and further processed. The fine art print is printed on canvas at 90 x 60 cm and has a shadow gap frame. It is characterized by its clarity and exciting composition, combined with great details, giving much to discover.

 

At the Auction for Climate Action initiative, artists and designers can offer their works for auction, which takes place mainly on Instagram. Their costs are reimbursed. The proceeds are donated directly to non-profit organizations active in climate protection:

Global Nature Fund, Justdiggit, Deutsche Umwelthilfe e.V. and Deutsche KlimaStiftung. I founded it and do it on a voluntary basis, which leaves less time for art. Some people also engage in that.

04/13 till 06/30:

My Instagram account has been hacked. Someone else has taken it over and probably wants to continue hacking and selling Bitcoin investments through it. I managed to get the account back with the help of a lawyer. 

February - April 2022

A new commissioned work: 'Hamburg Mix' . Many architectural highlights of our city were to be combined in a photo artwork in 90 x 60 cm. In total, this were 11 processing layers: 10 photo cutouts and a transparent airbrush part. After printing, I partially painted the canvas with oil paint. Some of the colors are changed or emphasized, some details have shadows and thus the plasticity is enhanced. Some, as especially in the plants, has become more picturesque. However, this effect was only slightly desired, as the photo work is already very convincing with its clarity and sharpness. It fits wonderfully to the customer and his room!

 

9.11. to 24.12.

Pre-Christmas sales exhibition 'Small Treasures' by several artists from and with the KulturWerk Rahlstedt in Hamburg. A variety of small paintings will be shown, with a maximum width of 50 cm.  There are also sculptures, installations, light objects, books, textile works, cards and more.

November 2021

On behalf of a coaching company, I optimized and corrected (also the perpective) and afterwards painterly processed three photos so that they can be used for a Christmas card and more. They should look artistic and express a good mood. And also be more adapted to the company colors blue and orange. The printing company made them into beautiful Christmas cards.

11/01/2021 - Summer 2022:

Participation at Holy Shit Shopping, which takes place online again. Many designer, artists, artisans, goldsmiths and more are listed at www.holyshitshopping.de.

 

From September 2021:

These will be announced here as soon as they are fixed. Some clean-up works and renewals on site and also digitally have to be done. 

New versions of the book cover in English and German.

Sustainability

Since the urgency for all of us to become sustainable in our private and professional lives is heightened after the latest IPCC report and the whole impact of the climate catastrophe, I would like to list here what my efforts at work look like:

  • Transportation: mainly bicycle and public. Transports with eco-electricity powered vehicle.
  • Studio: economy of space, heating (new system), electricity (real green electricity) and no polluting materials like vinyl
  • Work: as low as possible, environmentally friendly and sustainable consumption (in the choice of products) and therefore waste avoidance (concerns mainly paint, paper, kitchen roll, foil), no prints on forex plates
  • Consumption during: Tap water, as sustainable as possible, no animal products
  • Artwork: I would like to do more art with upcycling and recycling (2 ex. see below) and am very open to these requests, such as painting/ changing colors/ adding to existing artwork, painting/ working on plates, cans, furnishings, etc., misc.

Feel free to send me any other suggestions or questions about this. I donate for climate protection measures and against the climate harmful and its effects.

 

08/02 - 08/30/2021 water exhibition (postponed from last summer)

Participation at the 'water' exhibition of the Kulturwerk Rahlstedt on board of the museums ship Cap San Diego. It's lying at Überseebrücke in the harbor of Hamburg and makes some tours. In the hatches 1 and 2 the artworks will be displayed during museum hours. Each artist shows 2-4 artworks. You can see one of them down here the 'Life in the ocean'. Pics of the process, details, full size and photos in the dark with the fluorescent paint . I had to paint the fish more often and with accurate edges, so its visibility is very well in the dark. The most of it is acrylic paint and waste, fixed on MDF in 59,5 x 91,5 cm. This work should be critical, but also with hope.

Other works for the 'water' exhibition follow right behind this text: 'Fading stream' (100x100 cm) and a small collection of works of which two will be displayed. For entrance you need to buy tickets online or directly before at the entrance. For inquiries you need to contact the artists directly. On the 27th I will be there for the whole day. If you are interested in these works, please ask for my info paper with intel, images and prices. I can send it via email. Or ask for an appointment. If I'll be there another time, I will inform about it here.

In the Kulturwerk Rahlstedt (Boizenburger Weg 7) is a small exhibition of the same artists at the same time and you can find one artwork of mine there, too. It will  continue in Rahlstedt until th 8th of September (11.00 a.m. and 1.00 p.m.). The water exhibition was on TV and you can see this here at 14:52. With my artworks at the sweeping vision on the left wall and a close-up of my 'Life in the ocean':

9th/10th of July 2021 '100 views' exhibition (painting from March) until July 2022

Participation at the exhibition about the district of Sankt Pauli from the Millerntorgallery with  Viva con Agua Arts in the Millerntor Stadium. The opening is scheduled on 07/09/21. Every visitor of the stadium will visit also the exhibition.

The artwork 'Alley in the evening' shows a typical scenery of the district and gives my impression on it and shows some flair. Empty streets are normally seen only aside the main spots, but the pandemic changed everything. All businesses from there suffer a lot.

The artwork is in the size of 42 x 59,3 cm and painted with acrylics and pastel chalk on paper. After that I varnished it with UV protection. Inspiration was a photo, which I edited digitally a lot. As I am an interior designer the correct perspective is important to me, aside from artistic freedom. Therefor I constructed it first with a pencil. I love strong colors, especially also this pink and turquoise, and I enjoy this special impression that the reduction to two colors with black and white gives. The variety of paint application is wide. I used very different brushes, silicone palette knives, palette knives, spatulas and fingers. And several techniques like scrabbing, dripping, sprinkle, speckling and letting it run. For the online offer of my art click here.

There will be a two-days-opening with time slots for free on the 9th and 10th of July. Further possibilities for seeing the works I will add here.

The exhibition was on TV, which you can watch here (at 14:56):

Dear customers and interested parties, 

 

here is a collection of opinions about single pictures/posts, series or even the feed. I would like to collect reviews and other opinions and publish them here. In the case of customers, I would also like to know to what extent my art has met their tastes and requirements. If a (first) name is allowed, please add it behind. I would be very happy about such emails! And also about reviews on Google and likes, comments etc. on Instagram, facebook, YouTube, pinterest or tumblr. If you like what you see.

 

And, if you don't get any email info from me yet (about 2x/year), about messages for the email distribution list (in Bcc).

 

February/March 2021

 

Working on a book cover. My artwork which I posted here at Topical one year ago is part of this project. The book's name is 'Visioni notturne al chiaro di Venere' ('Night visions under the light of Venus') by Tullio Colombo and will be published in Italian first. Then it'll be published also in other languages like German and English. More intel and an image will follow at this point. I transformed the artwork for the cover image by changing the format, editing it in a bold, swirled way (like a dream) and moved the Venus. Then I designed and chose the layout, fonts and colors. Of course everything in cooperation with the customer. Finally I warped the title in a curvy, swinging way to adjust it to the dreamlike background.

 

 

 

End of December 2020

These nine posts were the most liked of the year on Instagram . I wish all a happy New Year!

I probably had about almost 1500 follower at that time, but I missed to write everything down, like I did before.

11/16/2020 - 06/30/2021

Participation at the online marketplace of Holy Shit Shopping. This time the fair is only online. My art will be shown with products of many designers, modern artisans and and artists on their website. Also on facebook. From there you'll be lead to my website.

November/Dezember 2020

Working on several variations of 'painterly photo editing', which is offered in a seperate menue. You are able to choose the style and order your own photo in that style on several media. The digital editing includes several digital commands, painterly and artistry effects, that are also produced with artificial intelligence. Additionally to that you can choose standard enhancing photo editing or painting.

I also added examples in rooms in the gallery, that have been only on Instagram before. And my postcards and gift voucher are added in the shop

Most of my artworks of the gallery KuRa (Harksheider Str. 6a) moved in December to the gallery KuRa Volksdorf (Groten Hoff 21), both in Hamburg. Five new artworks of mine were added to this. They will also appear in the shop windows, in both galleries.

September - December 2020

Mixed artworks and themes, for example also postcards and 'small treasures' for the expected Christmas exhibition in Hamburg Rahlstedt. Experimenting with new digital techniques. More information on both will follow. The exhibition is cancelled.

August of 2020

The art lessons in school started again, first outdoors.

I worked on the commission work 'The Pier' , first digitally, then printed on canvas and painted. The motive is inspired by a small pier edit by me and should fit to the colors of a flower work, which is already hanging in the coaching room. The coaching rooms are designed by me as an interior designer and all artworks are by me. You can see more of them at this place in the beginning of 2016 until June. For this work I combined the photoart with colorfield painting (reminding of Mark Rothko) with acrylic colors and some details with oil colors. The sky is consisting of blurred abstraction which shows a big contarst to the accurate pier. The surrounding blurr and the strong perspective draws the eye on the pier, in the middle far away, to the destination. the purchaser from entwicklung GbR in Hamburg Rahlstedt are very happy with this new artwork and about having the last highlight for the coaching rooms completed. The rooms are also for rent.

The process of the commission work 'The pier', in August 2020, in 120 x 80 cm, photoprint on canvas with acrylics and oil colors.

Most of them are in the gallery Harksheider Str. 6a, some go to different branches at Groten Hoff 21, Eppendorfer Weg 77 and Alsterdorfer Str. 35. Some are already sold.

December 2019 - February 2020

Commission work from Italy with typical (customer) photographs from Piemont, combined and digitally edited and printed on canvas, in 120 x 80 x 4 cm. Afterwards acrylic painting. The photos by Tullio Colombo should be transformed, but the special, clear atmosphere should be preserved. They show the abbey of San Nazzaro Sesia near Novara or Milan from 1075 and the landscape nearby with the Venus and the sanctuary Madonna della Fontana.

With the last commission work in autumn I described in the text below the proceedure of a commission work and on the images I showed the painting progress. Here I like to show the whole progress with the digital and matching work and some details. We called it 'Night visions in a Venus light'. Or also 'Nachtvisionen im Venus Licht' or 'Visioni notturne al chiaro di Venere'.

The collector who ordered 'Night visions under a Venus light', see above, wrote a nice story about it on facebook. You can click <- to get there. Facebook has a translation from Italien if you click that.
