One drawing per day… Documenting, saving, remembering. Since 2013, this is my ongoing diary project. No matter, if it becomes a good or a bad drawing. Keeping the moments and keeping the way of seeing the world through an artist’s eye. /

Jeden Tag (auf)zeichnen. Festhalten, erinnern. Seit 2013 ist dies meine Form der Tagebuchaufzeichnung. Ganz egal, ob es eine gute oder eine schlechte Zeichnung wird. Weder den Moment noch den künstlerischen Blick verlieren.
