At other times it’s the large statement of a gate – the left one is the gate of the old Jewish cemetery in Hemsbach (the sign says: Be careful – branches might break and fall!), the right one is the side entrance of the Peterskirche in Weinheim.

Art doesn’t reflect the visible but reveals.
Art does not reflect what is seen, rather it makes the hidden visible.

The smile hung in the air for at least 15 minutes.
Who knew that Mother Nature could paint like that?
