I work with and on paper. Always in black and white and all the nuances between.The motifs are landscape and nature. Lights and shadows are important. I work with collages and drawings. In the collage I glue layers of paper. Parts of graphic leaves and paper I have processed with ink. In drawing I use pencil and eraser.I can also work with white chalk on black background.
