As a graphic artist, I focus on the visualisation of organic forms and creatures, among other things using a technique where medical syringes are used to apply the colour. Dotting, as I call the technique, creates an ornament-like structure in which the focus is not on the realistic part, but on the unique. For this reason, nature with its living creatures is one of the central themes for my work.
Dragonfly Illustration: A watercolour animal painting
Medium: Watercolour on paper Technique: The paint is applied with syringes Size: 41 x 56 cm
„How long I need for a Dotting work, I cannot say. In the case of the dragonfly watercolour illustration, it was certainly more than 15 hours. A lot of time passes from the first sketch to the final dot. Often the construction has to be reworked or the colours run messy.“
Dot Art: I developed a painting technique
For each dotting artwork, a construction is developed that creates the final ornament-like structure. The challenge is to create harmony between colours, surfaces and structure.
Watercolour Painting without a brush
The particular thing about Dotting is the tool that I use for it. The colour is applied precisely using syringes. An ornamental composition of elements is created.

„Various fashion photos were in front of me and provided the inspiration for the work Face.“
Seahorse V2
Medium: Watercolour on paper Technique: The paint is applied with syringes Size: 41 x 56 cm
„Seahorse was the first work where I used the technique in a mature way. The first version seemed inharmonious to me and was redesigned.“
Watercolour animals
Dotting as an illustration technique requires that a harmonious construction is developed. The goal than is to allow connections between two, three, or even four dots to create an ornamental harmonic shape. A seahorse was the first organic form I developed, and it took me three tries before the paint application worked perfectly.
In the second step I was inspired by a piranha and a butterfly but I never orient myself on the real world, I always develop my own version of the object.

Skull illustrations
I was always fascinated by the human skull, so I kept making different drawings and skull illustrations. I was never interested in the real image, but rather in an abstract approach. The following dotting versions are based on a template that I already used 20 years ago for other works.
