Artist Statement for STIMMUNG
Every time I start a new painting I'll go with the feeling and inspiration I'm feeling at that moment. The paintings will be different since every new painting will be based on my mood. I want to explore the opportunity to go with the flow and not just do a whole series based on one idea.
