Flowers ---- 1 ---- 2 "These creations of nature always fascinate me again. Their multiple forms and colours inspire me to paint. The experience that impressed me a lot was the particular one with the aboriginals in Australia. They burnt down everything and only a few days later everything was again freshly flourishing. Nature is something special for me and with pleasure I set myself in for the preservation of this inimitable beauty. It may be Eucalyptus, Orchids, Daffodils, Tulips or Poppies, all have their own spirit and give landscapes their particular appearance".
