Bird Art Collage

Untouched? Only almost

Material: Jasmine flowers, tiny rose buds, fluttering elm seeds, lilac
seed capsules, fern leaves, a chrysalis hand, lime seeds, fir seeds,
grasses and many other plant remains.
What could be nicer than gaining the trust of an animal and being allowed to feed it

I mainly determine the character and movement of the figures through their positioning in the picture.

Indicated line drawings such as arrows, grids and stamps are reminiscent of
markings and marginal notes in scientific works and drafts. Here they are part of the landscape design by human hands.
Nothing remains untouched. Or does it?

Caution is the mother of porcelain and nature

Hidden in the reeds, life is quiet and undisturbed. If you approach with enough patience and attentiveness, you can observe the wide variety of bird life.

    Juno and the Art of Imperfection

The days are growing longer, the meadows are lush, and the light streams so generously through the windows…

My thoughts are reflected in my work.
