Despite what you may think now, I had a very happy childhood. Growing up in a small town in Austria (Schwaz, Tyrol) surrounded by the Alps led to a close connection with nature.
In my youth, I started to dabble in portrait drawing, which eventually became a specialty.
Throughout the years my relationship with art had its up and downs, but my passion for drawing always kept coming back. Eventually, I set on a semi-professional path, did commissioned works and various exhibitions.
