"Pictures find me, not the other way around. It can be the gentle sweep of a path, the play of light on colorful autumn leaves or the sound of colors."
"Painting outside, in natural light, experiencing and feeling nature, that is my motivation, my strength. Special light conditions change things, warming, glowing, bright, dull light, morning light, long shadows in the evening light. The affection for a landscape makes me pause on my walks, emotions arise and take hold of me." - "I see painting as a way of processing what I see and expressing the moods I feel." (u. Schramm + S. Elle )
