"I am an experimenter - committing to one style would mean saying goodbye to my creativity" Oil and acrylic are my preferred media. Canvas, Tetra Pak, fabric as a painting surface - everything is possible. Brush, spatula, fingers, street broom, squeegee ... Because of my technical-analytical approach, I tend to paint in a realistic manner, but there is almost always something realistic in abstraction too. My pseudonym as a painter is DLII (D like Dieter, LII like 52 in Roman numerals - I was born in 1952 - Daily News as a statement). While I am painting, I let the video camera look over my shoulder and upload these making-of videos to my YouTube channel (approx. 1.5M clicks). I describe my pictures in terms of composition, background story and technique on my homepage and in my book "Making Of - A look over the shoulder of a painter". I have chosen the combination of painting, video and image description as my philosophy.
