Milestones

In 1998

I embarked on my professional journey with an apprenticeship as a theater painter at the Schmidbauer Atelier in Unteregg. Two and a half years later, I began my career as a stage painter at the Regensburg Stadttheater.

In 2004

I became the head of the paint shop at the Konstanz Stadttheater, a role I filled with passion and dedication. My journey continued in 2008 to the Weimar Nationaltheater and finally in 2010 to the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, where I worked as the head of the paint shop in both places.

During my long career at theaters, I had the good fortune to work with a variety of great artists, such as Georg Baselitz and Hermann Nitsch. I was also able to share diverse experiences and grow together with the competence of my often outstanding colleagues and employees.

2024 marked a turning point in my career: I fulfilled a lifelong dream and founded my own studio

Artworks

Parallel to my professional engagements, I have realized numerous exciting external projects. For example, in 2001 I presented my works at the Pow Wow restaurant in Augsburg and in 2014 at the Fattoria restaurant in Munich. In 2017, I designed and realized a memorial on the anniversary of R.W. Fassbinder’s death and in 2018 I restored the facade of the famous Heimer duck roast tent at the Oktoberfest.

My artistic journey is a constant expression of my passion for painting and my search for new, creative challenges. Visit my studio, van Bommel, and immerse yourself in my world of colors and forms.
