Let me introduce myself with my artist name "Soul."

Since I can think back, I have been obsessed with creative processes of all kinds. Among those, photography and graphic design are the ones that I have been constantly enganged with throughout my life. Not as a professional but passionately and always looking for new, fresh and unusual ways to use and combine different techniques and media to create artwork and designs that touch and inspire.

Starting off in the mid 80ties everything I did was analog. Combining photography with drawn or painted graphic elements usually meant patching together collages that were unique pieces that could not easily be reproduced.

The arrival of digital technology changed everything, drawing and painting software could be used together with image processing applications to generate multilayered, easily scalable artworks that could easily be reproduced. 

Finally the internet and smart devices lead to the development of new playgrounds for photographers and graphic designers.  Screendesigns, Webdesign and Logos play an important role in digital advertising campaigns on social media.

Today creative and vibrant graphic design is one of my biggest passions. Using state of the art software from Serif (Affinity Designer, Affinity Photo and Affinity Publisher) together with my constantly growing collection of photographs taken on the fly in everyday life and during adventures as well as stage photos for specific design processes, I work on, and think about designs almost every day.

I love to work on projects of any size, ranging from "simple" logo design challenges, customized gifts, event posters, invitations, music cover arts, scientifc illustrations (that I need in my work as a scientist) towards the development of visual concepts for websites presenting products and services.
