The adventure with an Ocean Monster and a Blueberry Angel.


Blueberryer and Blueberryess have found themselves in a tangled situation again.

Against all advice, Blueberryess jumped into the ocean because she wanted to know what she could find deep down in the black water. After that Blueberryer as a true gentlemen had no other option than to take a deep breath and jump into the ocean too. He did take the jump on his bike though. Of course he had a choice. To forget his Blueberryess and go for a wonderful bike ride in the “magnifique” Blueberry valley, sipping slowly the elegant Blueberry Cocktail at the top of the Blueberry Hill and enjoying the marvellous view over Blueberry Land. But as a victim of his own conception of his greatness, he had no other option than to jump into the black waters of that ocean. Or maybe it was true love?

Blueberryland #2/n

From my new Series Blueberryland – The adventure in the Blueberry Hole

Blueberryland is full of unpredictable and unexpected phenomena.

Just when Blueberryer and Blueberryess wanted to go for a nice, evening walk suddenly out of the blue a golden and blue hole opened its mouth and both of them were taken into a new adventure. Maybe they could even wake up in a new Universe? Can they survive inside the blueberry hole? Is there a way to escape from it? Is the blueberry hole less dangerous than an ordinary black hole? Can Blueberryer rescue his Blueberryess without his Golden bike?

Panta Rhei Has Flown the Nest

That title is in some ways metaphorical, but nevertheless it is also literally correct. My Panta Rhei painting has been sold to someone who really loves it. To someone who is also a very nice person. It is a nice feeling to know and to be sure that my paintings are in good hands. Especially something like Panta Rhei, which has been with me for such a long time. I have had a few potential buyers through that time but we never could agree about the price, until now that is.
A few word about this painting:

Contemporary Art in the Community #2/n

Here is the second video of the project Contemporary Art in the Community. We had an unexpected visit from Doreen on October 1st 2011. She is very much into art and she liked our idea. The video has been taken outside my studio on the Haldon Hills in Devon. In this video Doreen recognises Hell when she sees it, and feels herself drowning in a really stormy, turbulent sea in one of my paintings.

Gravity's Harlequin from Peter Pan Series

In this new work from the Peter Pan Series I wanted to capture a movement. I liked the idea of the clown in motion. I have already painted him motionless, so this time I wanted to paint him in action. There is a certain uncertain power which is pulling my little harlequin- clown in one direction. However when you look very close and you pay the attention to the body of the harlequin you can discover an inclination to go in the opposite direction.  And there is also Gravity, the natural phenomenon by which the body of my little friend attracts with a force proportional to his mass. Instead of a force it could of course be space-time curvature instead. An interesting idea for a new painting.

Devon Open Studios 2011 – third day "Out of the blue".

Yesterday completely out of the blue a German couple visited my studio. They had just followed the yellow signs, not knowing what would be at the end of them. They not only loved my paintings but even bought one. We talked about modern art, especially modern conceptual German art. She lives in Essen and he is from Wuppertal. I absolutely enjoyed my time spent with those two very interesting individuals who really were into modern conceptual art.
She loves my weird stuff, like My Brain

The Devon Open Studios 2011 – second day

Today is the second day of Devon Open Studios 2011. No visitors today. Yesterday a couple with a child visited me. They just saw a sign on the wall and because the child needed to take a leak they stopped and visited me. They were nice people but not really interested in my paintings or in what I am doing or why I am doing it.

Blueberry Biker on his way to his lover hidden in a golden cage.

There is a golden night in Blueberry-Land.  The Blueberryer is cycling on his golden bike. He is in a hurry; he is worried about his Blueberryess. She is hidden in a golden cage. She was hidden there by a vicious Spider-witch.  The witch wants to suck the delicious blueberry sweet-scented juicy life from the Blueberryess.  Can the Blueberry Biker arrive in time to rescue his lover? Can they live happily ever after together in Blueberry-Land?

Kasia in the Countryside

I created a video/slideshow to present my art from the last two years. Paintings, collages, installations, small sculptures all created in Devon, in Dunchideock. And of course lots of nature, black swans, trees, a cat and nice music. 8-)

"The inflamed eye of the beholder" from my surreal Eye Series.

If there is a way to free ourselves from suffering
We must use every moment to find it.
Only a fool wants to go on suffering.
Isn’t it sad to knowingly imbibe poison?
