A play of color, form, and movement
Rare Bird IV (30x40 cm, 2025) is a dynamic oil painting that explores the balance between abstraction and figuration. The expressive brushstrokes and the luminous shades of blue, yellow, and brown allow the bird motif to gently emerge from the composition – almost as if it were forming directly out of the paint.

Experience art – just a step away from Frankfurt
This artwork was created in Wiesbaden, near Frankfurt – a city with a flourishing art scene that often stands in the shadow of Frankfurt’s galleries. Yet this very proximity makes Wiesbaden a hidden gem for art lovers eager to discover new, inspiring works. A visit to Wiesbaden near Frankfurt is well worthwhile to experience modern abstract art up close.
The artist’s palette as part of the work
A fascinating detail of this painting is the visible artist’s palette, which has been directly integrated into the composition. The freely placed dabs of paint and spontaneous mixtures give the work a special depth and recall the creative process of its making. The palette almost seems like an extension of the bird – as if it were created from pure color.
Between freedom and structure
For me, this work stands for the power of transformation and adaptation. The bird moves between defined forms and open abstraction, a symbol of the playful yet fleeting aspects of nature. The combination of strong contrasts and soft transitions invites the viewer to discover new details again and again.
A modern artwork for stylish spaces
This original painting is perfect for modern living spaces, creative work environments, or collections of contemporary art. Its compact format makes it highly versatile, while the powerful composition turns it into a focal point.
