I painted the last painting of the day under time pressure again: on the one hand, the end of the opening time was approaching, on the other hand, the sun was sinking faster than expected.
I chose this motif because of the beautiful sun spots on the blast furnaces, which really made the rust glow... but they changed so quickly that I simply couldn't observe them closely enough to paint them properly.
That's why, for once, I worked on this painting again at home and reworked the sunspots....

First thing in the morning, after the hut opened, we walked into "paradise", the name of the part that nature is slowly reclaiming.
The motif has a bit of a temple in the jungle, like Angkor Wat ... Totally crazy!

After all the dune and wave paintings, here comes something completely different:
My art retreat this year with Torsten and Wolber and Alfons Kiefer was at the UNESCO World Heritage Site Völklinger Hütte in Saarland.
I already painted there with the Urbansketchers in 2017 and 2018 - and I was thrilled to be able to "swing the brush" there again!
This time we were accompanied by Blaise Pillera, who was a great addition to our little group!
This painting is the "warm up" I did right after arriving there on Monday afternoon.
