Of all printmaking techniques lithography is probably the “queen”. Printing on these heavy slabs of stone requires not only patience and knowledge of the printing procedure but also some physical strength. But once you prepared your drawing on the stone, you can print a series and enjoy this special form of art.
I´m currently doing a printmaking workshop in a papermaking museum. These are some monotype prints, done with oil-based inks and a printing press. Tomorrow we will do lithography which I haven´t done for ages. I´m really curious about the results…
I have always loved the airy quality of watercolour and enjoyed painting with them back at school. Now I´ve started again…
It has been a long time since I last did some paintings using watercolours. But I got some high quality paints and brushes for Christmas so I decided to give it another try. The results are quite interesting, although they don´t have this very light quality of a typical watercolour painting. With these works I was more interested in layering different watercolours.
Besides my printed work I’m also offering some greeting cards with pen and ink drawings on them.
I’m busy printing a range of unique linocut Christmas cards at the moment.
These are some of the results, ready to be taken to a Christmas market:
A friend of mine is a textile designer and I love to print.
So it was just a matter of time to start printing on fabric. This is going to be our first collaborative piece of work, a beach mat.
We will also take part in this craft fair in April which I´m really looking forward to.

I tried to catch the mystic of the mountainous Salzkammergut region by using only black artist brushpens and a bit of ink…
