Did I miss something? Already November? But why are the leaves still green? Oh, it’s so awful cold since a week I really start to worry about the harvest we can expect. But I hope, when we are asleep, at night, on the quiet, there comes a little bit of spring. Daily Painting about night spring 14 Mai 2010, 7:51 Nachts, wenn der Frühling kommt, Aquarell, 17 x 12 cm
The terrible oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico gets worse everyday. I love the idea of collecting hairs from men and animals to stop the pollution. Perhaps someone pays bounties for pigtails – hunting scenes in the barbershop. Daily Painting about hair bounty hunter 12 Mai 2010, 7:44 Zopfgeldjäger, Aquarell, 17 x 16 cm
This day was for cleaning! And when I finally had finished I looked out of the window and saw a grey, messy sky. So, clean house, dirty clouds? Thankfully it was already twilight hour so I could reward myself with a great glass of beer! Daily Painting about twilight. 11 Mai 2010, 7:48 Blaue Stunde, Aquarell, 24 x 32 cm
Mother’s Day in Germany. The Flower shops are happy. Why do my thoughts go to Max Ernst’s „The Blessed Virgin Chastising the Infant Jesus“? Since I was a child it’s one of my favourites, because it casts such a special light on Mother-Child-relationship.

Today I was visited by a journalist who wanted to write an article about the Schirmer project. Several artists responded to his work and the exhibition is opening soon. Funny they ask me, seems that I become a spotted dog here. Daily Painting about profile 7 Mai 2010, 7:59 Der Bekanntheitsgrad vom Bunten Hund, Aquarell, 27 x 19 cm
Today I had a meeting with a publisher and we discussed the possibility of making a Daily Painting Book. But we didn’t know whether you will like the idea. So the publisher proposed to ask you. Now, would you like a Daily Painting book or not? Daily Painting about avid readers 6 Mai 2010, 7:46 Bücherwürmer in eindeutiger Absicht, Aquarell auf Papier und Schokolade, 29,5 x 21 cm
Today I had nothing to roll my macaronis and so I used the stick of a small brush. It worked, but after a while I had coloured pasta and all over my paintings were little crumbs of dough. Is there a better way to get one with your art? Daily Painting about mergence 5 Mai 2010, 7:46 Es scheint, als würd ich eins mit einem Bild, Aquarell, 31,5 x 24 cm
Sometimes a lady’s gotta do what a lady’s gotta do! You know what I’m talking about: I went to the hairdresser! I felt a little bit excentric, so you all may guess what I look like: Beehive? Rasta? Or some green highlights? Daily Painting about hairstyles 4 Mai 2010, 7:54 Turmfrisur, Aquarell, 24 x 18 cm
In these days I can’t stand watching the news. The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is so horrible I don’t want to imagine what really happens there. I’m dreaming of an angel stopping this pollution. But it looks like we have much too much to do for him. Daily Painting about an angel’s overtime 3 Mai 2010, 7:41 Umweltengels Überstunden, Aquarell, 16,5 x 18 cm
Sometimes luck is a funny thing: Looking for spice jars I found a complete set of 10 antique Delft porcelains jars on a flea market for next to nothing. They look wonderful but now I’m much too afraid to use them. And where to put my spices?
