His main subject is the beauty and mystery of woman, evoked both through his sensual nudes and through the symbolic richness and Oriental motifs of his colorful backgrounds. His paintings are, in effect, forms of tangible poetry.

(Claudia Moscovici)

And here is a small poem that I liked. I found it together with the image, in a blog of eigene Lyrik mit ausgewählten Bildern (own poetry with images of choice). The blog is authored by Gerhard, architect and poet. And, like in his other poems, Gerhard suggests a new title for the painting - Like an Hourglass.

Wie eine Sanduhr

Zum See will ich gehen
Wenn es Frühling wird
Das Leben packen
Es umdrehen wie eine Sanduhr
Auf dich warten
Bei unserer Bank
Wieder verliebt sein ...

I want to go to the lake

When spring comes

Grab life

Flip it over like an hourglass

Waiting for you

On our bench

To be again in love...
