New Paintings

Lately, I have disovered a new interest: painting trees! This may result from my stay in the Alpes during summer or the yearning for the quiet of a forest in the midst of my rather turbulent down-town Berlin life. Or it just happened and I found much joy in the brownish tones of the surfaces of the tree trunks. As usual, there is a singular figure next to the "natural aspects" and not much else..

The series is nearly complete - there are three more paintings (measuring only 24 x 32 cm or 9.5 x 12.6 ins.) to be tackled and then there are 20 of them alltogether, displaying the full tones of my personal grasp of "Herbst" (autumn).
