Carl picked up a brush at the age of three and has since created over 3,000 works of art. He is the creator of a unique genre: "Fantastic Naturalism" (from the Greek Phantastikos – to make visions visible). He says: "Nature is the greatest work of art", and in his paintings nature transforms its physicality into transcendent visions, to which the painter gives form with fluidity, rhythm, music and harmony. Carl's paintings are open stories, a thought, an emotion brought to the canvas, in which viewers find their own interpretation while being transported to a contemplative and spiritual world searching for meaning and comfort. With over 1,500 illustrations for magazines such as GEO, STERN and SPIEGEL, he is a lifelong member of the National Geographic Society. His award-winning paintings can be found in homes, offices, museums and galleries around the world. He lives and works in Switzerland.

From the abstraction to the reality behind it is the journey that the viewer makes in Sven's pictures. The reality behind the illusion we call life. A world behind the visible world, the world of the spirit. The viewer travels back in time, from the abstract to the object, to the soul. Inspired by Buddhism, Hinduism and Tao, the stories of Sven's work are the immense "world of the mind" of collective consciousness, the "soul landscape" of man. Unfathomable journeys, indescribable in words or images that can only be told with intense color and passion. Sven's works are multimedia, meaning that he uses all materials and possibilities at his disposal. Be it oil paint, acrylic paint, pastel chalk on canvas or cardboard. He also uses digital possibilities to express himself and give ideas a form. He lives and works in Germany. Website: www.svenscolors.com
