Healthy, balanced, varied, and preferably regional cuisine. For breakfast, lunch, and dinner, you can choose from a wide selection of generous and appealing buffets. For lunch, we offer a variety of appetizers, salads, soup, three different main courses—one of which is vegetarian—and desserts. The cold and hot dinner buffet features a selection of breads, cold cuts and cheese platters, salads, and a hot dish.

Every day, we do short exercises and cover a bit of theory on topics such as portraiture, perspective, composition, and color. You’ll work on your own ideas, reference materials, and concepts, and I’ll provide individual guidance on all artistic questions. All materials and techniques are welcome.

As an instructor and coach, I teach people of all ages creative techniques. From the principles of design, drawing, and painting to small-scale sculptural works, I develop and supervise art projects.
As a mentor, I guide the artistic and personal process, encourage participants to have their own experiences, foster individual potential, and support them in realizing it.

Since 2013, I have been organizing painting trips to select monasteries in Germany and Italy.
As a freelance artist, I work on commissioned pieces and exhibitions.

In my personal life, I’m an amateur farmer and love horses, dogs, and cats,
good food, and music from around the world.
