"I am German born, but grew up in Australia. After studying for an associate diploma in Art and Craft at TAFE in Adelaide in 1983, I began teaching painting, drawing and ceramics at TAFE in Adelaide. As well as conducting private classes.
I constantly explore watercolours, pastels, oils, acrylics and mixed media, and enjoy them all, exhibiting regularly in Sydney as well as in Adelaide. My work has been featured in the Artist's Palette magazine. I have won over 50 prizes in various art shows since 1983; 21 of these were 1st prizes, including the Packer's award at the Archibald in 1993.
I began teaching at the Castle Hill Art Society in 1997, and like to introduce various media to my students. I regularly conduct workshops and demonstrations in and around Sydney as well as interstate and overseas."
