STATEMENT

I am a creator more than an artist. Everything around me is my inspiration. Bits, pieces, snippets, sounds, and feel all contribute as triggers, reactions, ideas, and results. My work comes as a product of where I am and what is at hand at the moment. Changing gears is a constant. I continually work on different types, formats and styles at the same time. Travelling around the world, taking the small roads, and seeking something new is the best source for my mind. Standing still or only making one kind of art is not an option.

BIO

Born Wurtzburg, Germany 1961.

Resided in Germany, Ohio, Texas, Colorado, California, Washington, and Bangkok.

Currently spending time between Denver, Colorado and Bangkok, Thailand. My work includes everything from drawing, painting, screenprinting, collaging, photography, assemblage & music.

I am basically self taught. Whatever I decided to learn, I just made my way through it. What you see in my work filtered through my travels, museum visits, art books, experimentation , trial, error, and reckless abandon.

Since 1990, Jeff has been showing his work all over the world, including Los Angeles, Seattle, Paris, Ghent, Bangkok, Portland (Oregon), Eugene (Oregon), Bakersfield (California), Napa (California), Pomona (California), Alameda (California), New Orleans, Bern (Switzerland), Geneva, Liege, Victoria (British Columbia), Denver, Boise (Idaho), and Berlin.
