Nature is an inexhaustible source of inspiration. It’s not subject to any trends, it has timeless beauty. The moments in my life where I was impressed by the beauty of nature are uncountable. The elements of nature have so much meaning, you can immediately set the mood with it. I also want to show people the beauty of nature to inspire them to look after our planet.

I always try to leave enough room for people’s own interpretation. Art can be really valuable if you can relate to it and have the freedom to make it part of your own journey in life. There’s this saying, that’s also on the cover of my art catalog: ‘When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change’. That’s exactly what I’m trying to do with my art.

I think with showing the connections between people, animals and nature, you cannot miss the message that we are all just a really tiny part of this universe and that we all have the same value. It doesn’t matter where you come from, what you have accomplished or how much money you make when it comes down to what really matters in life. I hope to touch the emotions we can all relate to. In the end, the important things in life are universal. We feel the same emotions, we are all longing for love, we share the same planet with the same animals. We should appreciate every human being as we are all in this together.
