Today I got the news that one of my Twitterfriends nearly died last week. It’s shocking, I never met him, but he seems to be a vital part of my everyday life. This is the shizophrenia of social networking in the digital world – so far, but so near. I’m very happy that he is better now. Daily Painting about gratitude
Thanks, ink on watercolour, 23,5 x 17 cm
How beautiful! In the last years nobody cared about the little park in front of my house and all my attempts to make it nice were in vain. But today came a group of people from the church vis-à-vis and they planted flowers and bushes. And now it looks wonderful! Daily Painting about green fingers
The guys with the green fingers, watercolour, 18 x 25 cm
I don’t like hunting. But so many people I met in the last time seem to be passionate hunters. All right, I try to be tolerant, they are really nice persons. But then they want to proof me how politically correct they kill and tell me their best hunting stories. And I hate to hear how wonderful the animals die. Daily Painting about friendly hunters
So nice hunters, watercolour, 32 x 24 cm
Today was the memorial service for the victims of the Loveparade catastrophe. I’m still upset about this disaster and all the lies we got told. They wanted to realise this event come hell or high water and it came hell. Daily Painting about temper

This was a day full of hard work. My head is spinning with 3 different projects. A new one: I plan a painted guide through the Eifel – wonderful, but work under pressure, editor is waiting for it. Sometimes art shows us its humourless face. Daily Painting about labour
How hard is the harvest of the pineapple, watercolour and coloured pencil, 30 x 22,3 cm
Good news from Spain: for the first time a province decides to ban bullfights. I’m very happy about this decision from Catalonia, I detest torture animals for the fun of the masses. This is not a national culture, it’s senseless cruelty. Daily Painting about sacred cows
The sacred cow, ink on watercolour, 17 x 24 cm
Today I really needed a pause. Yesterday evening I somehow managed to unpost my Daily Painting and that was the signal: Stop! Have a quiet day! Well, in fact I looked at all the things I did in the last weeks and I felt really special. Daily Painting about flight
A little flight of fancy, watercolour, 17 x 24 cm
Each time I cook I remember the persons who ate this special meal with me before. So I invite always at my table the memories and the spirit of all the persons who were my guest in my life. Sometimes it’s a strange company but I never forget my recipes. Daily Painting about spiritual cooking
Ghosts, Dinner is served! watercolour, 24 x 32 cm
Today I found a can with white laquer. This is a sign, I called and began to paint everything that didn’t run away: bed, table, chairs, doors, windows, more tables and so on. Now the can is empty except for a little rest. Perhaps the white colour of my Pinscher needs a little brush-up? Daily Painting about makeover
