For me, the difference between travel photography and travel drawing is...
"... that I can be far more subjective and personal in my drawings, much more focused, I can highlight and leave out much more than in a photograph. Photographs for me are always just memories and working tools, something like a visual note; with the drawings, on the other hand, I tell a story."
When I draw...
"... I am fully focused and should not be distracted (my children are then met only by my ‘evil eye’ or with an angry hiss)."
On my ‘travels’ I have been inspired, above all...
"... by the drawings of 18th and 19th century naturalists and explorers, such as Georg Forster, Alexander von Humboldt or Ernst Haeckel; but also by today’s graphic journalism, the works of Olivier Kugler and Joe Sacco, for example."
I would like to go to...
"... Cape Canaveral to capture the start of the first humanoid robot for a mission to Mars in a few years."
My travel literature on my next trip will include...
"... Hanya Yanagihara’s ‘The People in the Trees’ that I have only just started and will finish on my forthcoming trip."
