I discovered acrylic paint for myself in 2007. Before I used oil colors and watercolors, sometimes combined with gel pens and ink pens. I paint on paper, canvas and since 2009 on wood panel. The painters of the middle ages painted on wood panel. I saw many of their masterpieces in galleries, and I was fascinated how detailed they were able to paint and how the colors came out on wood. I also saw their use of gold.

In January 2011 I started making digital paintings.

"Construction on a purely abstract basis is a slow business, and at first seemingly blind and aimless. The artist must train not only his eye but also his soul, so that he can test colours for themselves and not only by external impressions."
Wassily Kandinsky, Ueber das Geistige in der Kunst-Concerning the Spiritual in art, 1912

night crowd


wings of the night

Auf den Flügeln der Nacht

Auf den Flügeln der Nacht
reise ich
in die Magie des Loslassens
und werde
durch die Phantasie
an die Ufer der Leben getragen,
jenseits von dem Heute,
dem Jetzt, dem Irgendwo,
an denen sich eine Seele,
die das Tatsächliche
nicht mehr spüren möchte,
erholen kann.

Flora von Bistram, 2007

on the wings of the night
I am traveling
into the magic of letting go
and I am carried by imagination
to the shores of the lives
beyond today,
now, somewhere

where a soul, that doesn`t want to be faced with reality anymore,
can recreate.
