I was always passionate about making things, designing, creating with whatever materials came my way. For some years now I am back to my first passion of oil painting in particular, but also painting and drawing with other materials. I used to take great pleasure in building my own painters workshop, a wooden shed in my garden, and designing gardens and interiors for myself and other people. But now most of my time goes into painting, teaching classical portrait painting, giving workshops and showing my work in exhibitions or visiting other artists shows.My second passion is singing in a choir as a soprano. We sing modern classical music, written by modern day composers.
