About this artwork
Forget AC/DC – the real "Rock Machine" has round ears! In this pop art painting, Mickey Mouse shows us his rebellious phase. The good-natured Disney darling shreds a solo on a bright blue electric guitar that makes all of Duckburg tremble. With neon green cat-eye sunglasses, a nonchalant grin, and his iconic oversized yellow shoes, he's ready for the stadium.
The background is a visual spectacle:… black and white diagonal stripes practically vibrate with energy, while a huge, sunny yellow circle perfectly puts Mickey in the spotlight. Is it a gigantic spotlight or perhaps the biggest Swiss cheese in music history? Even his cool shadow on the wall seems to be rocking out to the beat. An extremely colorful eye-catcher that proves: rock 'n' roll never dies – it just gets mouse ears!

Credentials
- Works on commission
I was born in 1964 and live and work near Koblenz. My grandfather taught me the basics of oil painting as a child. I have dedicated myself to art since 1996. The old masters influenced my photorealism.
Initially, I designed motifs for art publishers. A commission to portray the classic cars of a car collector led me to automotive art, Formula 1, and its sponsors. My works have been exhibited in Europe and the USA.
A Donald Duck painting opened the world of Pop Art to me. Since then, I've combined realism, comics, and humor, and asked myself: "What if...?"
I combine unusual elements and tell stories that the viewer can continue. One special technique is painting on puzzle pieces, whose structure becomes part of the artwork.
Humor is important to me. My pictures are meant to make people smile, marvel, and think.
