Painting, sketching and taking pictures are some of my interests. In a relaxed mood just looking around gives me enough impetus to start sketching.
During the past years I experimented a lot, took classes and exercised on many occasions. Almost always I carry some pens and papers. I think pictures are always reductions of reality. The art of the artist is to know which parts to omit or reduce. Finally it is the observer´s brain which does the interpretation.

P.S.: My recommendation: The best book about learning art I know of is Betty Edwards´ “Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain: A Course in Enhancing Creativity...." St. Martin's Press, 1989, ISBN 087477523X
