“My most recent painting “The Perfect World” kind of sums of my journey until now. I have been working on this painting for a long time and it’s special to me.
It’s inspired by everything around me, everything I see, hear and feel. In fact everything inspires me, my hardships, my struggles and my success, good times/bad times – I’m thankful for all of it.
It has all led me to a position where I not only get to paint every day, but I also get to help other people and support and donate to causes I believe in.
So “just” painting wasn’t enough for me, I wanted more. I wanted to make a difference. Being an ambassador for TPWF is my way to contribute to making the world a better place. And that’s why I named the painting The Perfect World.
With our initiative, The Attenborough Forest, we plant trees all over the world to save the rainforests, create wildlife habitats, revive biodiversity and fight climate change. Right now, we are well on our way to plant 1,5M trees, but we will not stop there, we will continue as long as we can.
To wake up every day and paint, and to be able to making the world a better place at the same time, is one of the best things I know. I feel it’s my purpose.
-And this painting is not only about imagining a better world, but to create it too.”
