Jedes Jahr zu dieser Zeit überkommt mich eine unsagbare Sehnsucht nach dem Meer und weil es in diesem Sommer wohl nicht klappen wird, dorthin zu fahren, male ich mich eben ans Meer.

Every year at this time, I am overcome by an indescribable longing for the sea, and because I probably won't be able to go there this summer, I just paint myself by the sea.

Einer der schönsten Augenblicke, wenn wir nach Süddeutschland und speziell nach Bayern reisen, ist für mich jedes Mal der Moment, in dem man den ersten Blick auf die Alpen hat. Jenes majestätische Gebirge mit seinen oftmals noch schneebedeckten Gipfeln und ebenso der Anblick der ersten Kirche mit dem für die Region typischen Zwiebelturm sind ein wunderbares Gefühl für den Urlaub.

For me, one of the most beautiful moments when traveling to southern Germany—and to Bavaria in particular—is catching that first glimpse of the Alps. That majestic mountain range, with its often still snow-capped peaks, combined with the sight of the first church featuring the region's characteristic onion-shaped dome, creates a wonderful holiday feeling.

Nun, dieser erste Versuch, den frisch renovierten Miniteich zu malen, ist nicht richtig geglückt, aber ich habe eine Menge gelernt und das zählt ja auch!

This is what home looks like to me, especially in September, when the heather blooms in Lüneburg Heath are coming to an end, and on beautiful, sunny days, the land shines once again in this incredible pink.

I’ve never painted this in all these years. But I love how this turned out and hope you like it too.
