- Yearnings of the soul - About this drawing This drawing belongs to the My Yearning Places Series. The Feeling of 'Sehnsucht' cristallized in my work since 2016. (German pronunciation: [ˈzeːnˌzʊxt])
Locus amoenus In Literature and general culture the theme of locus amoenus (Latin for 'pleasant garden/place') has been widespread. The opposite pole is the literary topos of locus terribilis (Latin for 'terrible place'). The My Yearning Places Series includes both paintings and drawings. The paintings are made in oil or with acrylics, carried out on canvas and on paper. The drawings are mainly executed with pencil on paper (in some cases also by means of black Conté chalk, charcoal or colored pencils).
