Painting with one eye



During my last holiday in Lucca Italy I suddenly suffered from an ablation of the retina in my left eye. We immediately returned to Munich and I got this fixed in the university hospital. The eye was filled with gas to press the retina against the background. But through this gas you cannot see much until the gas is absorbed again. So I had to paint only with my right eye. All three paintings above were done handicaped in this way. The first two were done after the indian painters Ejoumale and Abel. The last one ist a scene inside an Augsburg church. The paper was Hahnemühle 600 gr rough paper and Waterford 300 gr rough paper in the size of 38x56cm.
