"Throughout the decades, I repeatedly painted flower pictures – deliberately and with particular pleasure, especially when the prevailing zeitgeist completely frowned upon them, that is, during the so-called 'wild painters' period. In a gray Berlin winter in the old walled city, it was a feast for the eyes to put together a magnificent flower bouquet. It is often ignored that not all 'flower paintings' are the same. It is always important to see them in context and how they were made."
