Homer always has been one of my great teachers. I spent hours analysing his work and copying his watercolors.

Fascinated with water and always looking for it, I worked on a my own series of lakes.

It happened in the Black Forest on a dark december afternoon.

What you can see is the work that inspired me and the sketches done in freezing cold and under some snow.

The 4 colored lakes were done in studio the following days in Strasbourg.
