The kind of painting I do is often looking at people: I'm fascinated by them moods, gestures, wrinkels, expressions and discrepances between surfaces and substances. What attracts me in a face are wrinkels: scares of sadness, hopes, desires, a merciless map of life's evil, often badly hidden behind a smile. I develop paintings by pictures taken by myself with a digital camera, these are translated into paintings via several glazes of oil colours. Final touches are painted from life.
