Portrait

Drawing and painting was my hobby since I can remember, with charcoal, ink, pencil, oil, tempera, watercolor. Even as a student, I completed a correspondence course for commercial art and illustration at the American Famous Artists School in Holland.

Two decades, I've worked as a writer and journalist for design and architecture issues and discovered the means of expression letter I Intensify in a literature and writing workshop for six years. Except now and then I have to paint in that time totally neglected a few quick sketches. For this, I took my camera can carry anywhere, professionally and personally. For a year I have been drawing at night school at the Städel School Thomas Bayerle.
