First there is chaos - then I shape it until it makes sense.
That's what my art is about.
And my life.

some naive wondering combined with a healthy amount of madness and going full psycho. Pretty sure that's all I need to say!

and while listening to the Smiths I decided back then: I need more canvases. And paint. And a new kitchen floor but that can wait :D And maybe that's actually what you can read in Glompis appearance:

I really liked how the acrylic cells turned out here and discovering this new way to use my paints kind of started a crazy phase of experiments and madness, of my full body and kitchen covered in paint

No matter what he's doing there - we still don't know what he's hiding in his damn left hand!

But I also didn't use the sketches as a "have to be a 1:1 copy", that would negatively interfere with the whole spontaneous part in the process.
And that's actually how Glompi suddenly came up with a balloon in... A cave maybe?

Will we ever discover what he's hiding behind his back? Do I even know?
Well fact is: He always walks around with open big huge eyes - wondering about everything!
And let's be honest... We should do the same.

I hope you enjoy this one - cos it's clear how much Hauke enjoys it!

I will make a blog post in the future at Ko-Fi to explain and show how those paintings start, how they evolve - it's therapy for me.
And when they evolve and while they dry, a picture, a story, something builds up in my head. And this is when the actual intentional work starts.

The painting, the paints, the character (Hauke), the title and especially the tiny story - Even though I never have a clear intention when I start the acryl background, it kind of happened that this whole artwork evolved and changed faster than I was able to realise it.

It just happened while painting that I changed his body shape, being in some kind of a... hamster-mood? :D

You can't use pencil and ruler. You can't correct mistakes. And the result? Hauke is looking so different here than he looks originally :D

But I am absolutly okay with that - We all have days where we look in the mirrow and think: huh? Why do I look so wasted? - Don't we? :D
