    Description

    These elephant seals are from the RESPECT series, which I drew in honor of the sea creatures. For the representation of the countless hairs of their fur I chose a fine, light-fast ballpoint pen mien. Many different shades of grey are formed, which give the fur a shiny, moist impression through light reflections with white watercolour. The little elephant seal finds security with his father on the dark pebbles on the beach. I have depicted the lightness of the water by quickly coloring blue watercolor, which enhances the contrast with the heaviness of the stones and animals. The intricate depiction of the animals is meant to express my deep respect for the ocean creatures. Giving endangered animals a home on my paper makes me happy. Mentally, I thus travel to remote shores, visiting the animals in my mind without disturbing them. I am happy to take the viewer with me on the journey.

    Concept

    Every single line I draw shows my respect for all small creatures, on land and water. To memorialize the forms of nature, to honor them with the simplest ecological means, is my motivation. In my work I connect mentally with the object, traveling far towards it in a kind of meditation. I want to take the viewer into this peaceful world of divine harmony.
    In addition to my love of sea creatures, my second great passion is the theme of longing, a place where the soul feels at home. This place of my dreams could be on the coasts of Italy with its vegetation and architecture. For me a world of peace, warmth and harmony where the soul can rest.

    "In these troubled times, it is so important for our spirit to find a place of relaxation,
    a place where our soul feels at home."
