STEP

An obsta­cle is a step. Once you over­come the obsta­cle, you move up one step. And along life’s path, you encounter the same obsta­cle again and again—but you view it from a higher level. That is the core idea of the art­work “Stufe” (“Step”). That’s how I have expe­ri­enced life. You can also meet obsta­cles as steps toward your goal, because each step takes you fur­ther and higher.

Those who refuse to tackle obsta­cles remain at their level. Those who are afraid to face obsta­cles at all stay at their level. How often I’ve seen appre­hen­sion, the fear, in other people’s eyes because of an approach­ing obsta­cle. And in my nature I’ve anchored the con­vic­tion: if I master this obsta­cle as well, I’m one step fur­ther and one level higher.

Which brings me back to men­tal­i­ty. It sets our direc­tion. We make all our deci­sions based on our men­tal­i­ty. Often these obsta­cles are not what you expect. Often they don’t feel like “over­com­ing” at all; rather, while you are already walk­ing, already coping, the real­iza­tion comes: It worked. It wasn’t that hard. On we go. The art­work “Stufe” can only be pur­chased via online sale on my web­site, the art store. Thus, there is vir­tu­al­ly noth­ing between the artist and the art lover. Simply fill out the online form or send me an email. That’s it. I will then respond prompt­ly with a detailed quote and a pro­posed deliv­ery date. So: that shouldn’t pose a step.
