-
- Born in 1952 in
Gummersbach, Germany.
High school, afterwards education of
grafic arts
- under her
grandfather and father, both painters.
Own galleries in Kaarst near Düsseldorf
(1978 - 1980)
and in Mönchengladbach (1980 - 1982).
Several artshows.
-
 -
- Since 1999 I have
been doing digital paintings.
-
- For me the computer
is the ideal tool to express my
creativity.
- No other tool
enables such an immediate and spontaneous
- translation of my
emotions. The computer offers, so to
speak,
- a direct line to the
world of my thoughts and life
experiences,
- a connection from
human to machine, almost a merging, which
- makes me forget time
and space and lets me dive into the
- mysterious depths of
my being. The results are often
surprising,
- even to me, and
certainly would be instructive for any
expert
- soul researcher.
This immense intensity and emotionality
during
- the emergence of my
work is possible in such immediacy only
- with the help of
this tool. No mixing of colors interrupts
the
- streaming thoughts,
no stubborn material, nothing obstructs
the
- idea which is
transmuted spontaneously.
-
- Artists worldwide
unite, people come closer to each other,
even
- if separated by
oceans. Together they can be creative and
make
- the world a bit more
friendly.
-
- I work in photopaint
and photo adobe. Quite often and
automatically
- bodily shapes
emerge, embedded in mysterious
surroundings. An
- erotic component is
latently present as an expression of my
joy of
- life. Faces also
fascinate me, asking, amazed, demanding
and evil
- ones too. The works
come about without preconceived motives.
They
- have, so to speak,
their own life. Again and again I use
many of my
- first pictures on
the PC because they are the most
"innocent" ones,
- and fresh exciting
mutations repeatedly emerge. Everything
flows
- without borders into
each other. What is presently develops
further,
- becomes something
entirely new, a never ending treatment,
evolution,
- mutation. For now,
my pictures are "painted" with
the computer
- without the help of
scetches, photographs or scans. Often I
notice
- a small area in a
present PC painting which I then take out
and work
- into a new picture -
a never ending thriller. An open
challenge,
- sometimes even an
addiction. This creation without any
drafts or
- models, photographs
or scans, is so infinite, that at present
I can't
- imagine, what will
emerge once I work on my own scanned
paintings
- or photos. This is
certainly a step I will take in the next
few years.
-
- Special thanks to Dr. Hans-Georg
Turstig, who was
so kind to
- translate my
thoughts for me.
