Dieter Wolf works primarily with ink, pencil, and acrylic, influenced by his training at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna and his experience as a graphic designer. His technique is spontaneous, reduced, and sketchy—chance plays a major role, while precise attention to detail is consciously avoided. His preferred subjects are people, especially women, and his works convey a special perspective and elegant lightness. He places great importance on his images speaking for themselves, evoking emotions such as joy, sadness, or beauty without explanation.
