As you might have read in my story, I started painting at the early age of 12 and continued painting for ten years many old buildings and our castle back in Germany.
However since arriving in Australia, I been able to continue to enhance my painting skills profoundly.

A little bit of my painting history:
Since my arrival in Australia I been able to work in all four corners of Australia, along the East Coast from the Tablelands in Far-North-Qld to Sydney, Melbourne, painting in Denmark/WA and small jobs in Broom/WA, my journey brought me for two years to Darwin than again for some month to Qld, back to Sydney and finally back home to Melbourne.
Painting has always been exciting and brought me to a bounty of different places where I could refine over and over again my skills. Almost seven years later I can look back to my experiences on big building sites, businesses & factories, the NT prison, new suburban housing, beautiful heritage buildings, from simple housing to upmarket villas and everything in between.
Over the years I have met wonderful people from all walks of life and with some I was lucky to form beautiful friendships.
