Detailed description
Picture "Blue eyes" (2016)
The picture shows the upper half of the face of a young man with wet hair, looking intensely at the viewer with his blue eyes. Drops of water are visible on the skin and the damp hair reflects the light. The outline of a swimming pool and an expanse of water can be seen in the background. The painting was inspired by a situation we are all familiar with, when someone appears at the edge of a swimming pool and the fascination of this moment captivates us.
About Heinz Stoewer
In my early 40s, I ended my career as a lawyer and banker in favor of painting, which has been the center of my life ever since.
I live in Bad Tölz and Palm Springs, California.
My painting varies between real images and abstraction, where the interplay of form and color, that is, the painting itself is as much at the center of my work as the message.
Water reflections, nature-inspired themes and images of people, especially male bodies or sections of them, are focal points in my work series.
The influence of the flood of images on the Internet on us and our self-perception is questioned and the equality of alternative lifestyles is important to me.
I am inspired by various media, my own experience and everything that happens around me.
