Learned the commercial business of photography the hard way: first job as all-round advertising photographer and darkroom operator, later setting up my own photo-business and ending as photography/film professor in the department of Graphic Design in the PXL-MAD-Faculty, graduating over 33 years hundreds of Masters in Arts, specialised in Graphic Design. Few of my students took interest in a special ERASMUS-exchange projects with universities in Finland, UK, USA, Romania, Portugal, Spain, Scotland and Turkey. In return I had the opportunity to receive art-students from every ERASMUS-partner.
My Art of Photography is shown under Themes of Photography.
Retired some years ago and planning to conquer new artistic strategies.
Took some courses in Printmaking and discovered a mild and gentle technique of Photopolymer printmaking. Please discover my prints in this extended printmaking portfolio under Themes of Printmaking.
