What happened?

Until 2006 I did a lot of painting with some minor success. It never developed into a style as soon I was on to something it slipped away just about every two years.

Getting into computer graphics initially in 1995 it developed side by side painting.

In 2006 I decided to give up painting altogether and give all my attention to computer graphics, at first also some 3D, but eventually 2D, mainly Photoshop but also GIMP, which is open source. As of 2016 I decided to do only reinterpretations and have been experimenting with various possibilities. While working on the website galleries I realised that a composition of squares, separated by black spaces would give me my personal signature.
