AN INTRICATELY CREATIVE DEVELOPMENT

Latest first

So far, I have invested over 9000 hours in learning to draw with a loose and confident stroke, working with various techniques, and developing a trained eye for proportions.

My distinctive style and self-developed technique are the result of over two years of intensive work with many ups and downs. Everything that is on the paper stays. There are no retouching options.

I spent a lot of time developing a sense for reducing things to the essentials and bringing the animal soul and personality of a being onto paper. All of this makes my art so unique.

The last 15 years in art – in a nutshell:

  • from 2010 - now: Intensification of artistic creation in TierART

The maturation process  

The enthusiasm for design, creativity and aesthetics shapes my life and my professional career. After my training at the School of Design (now the University of the Arts), I first worked in interior design and later as an art director in an advertising agency. I quickly took the step into self-employment and founded my own manufacturer for brand impact in 1995: Chiocchetti GmbH . My standards for branding and advertising are anything but ordinary - always at a high level .

 

The embossing

I could just as easily have become an animal rights activist, but I decided to pursue my second calling: creativity. I discovered this early on and intuitively connected it with my love of animals. When I got my hands on the book by the sensational animal artist Fritz Hug at the age of seven, it was the initial spark and groundbreaking. Since then, my sketches, drawings and works of art have been piling up.
