Dear visitor, my name is Wolfgang Graue, I come from Germany and greet you from the beautiful small town of Celle, the southern gateway to the Lüneburg Heath. In 2006 I realised a long-awaited dream - with my early retirement I am living my "old love" of oil painting intensively. I am largely self-taught, I have learnt with every picture and it has become my own style of painting, and I can now say: "Painting is my life". Why with oil paints - brilliance, intensity, flexibility and durability have always inspired me, and I also love the pictures of van Gogh, Monet, Rubens or Leonardo Da Vinci - all absolute masters of oil painting. My paintings can be characterised as "naturalistic" / "realistic". I try to depict the subject in my paintings as realistically as possible. The shapes and perspectives have to be right, the proportions and colours have to be right, the highlights as well as light and shadow. The most important thing for me is that I can realise my wishes and dreams on canvas - with a lot of passion and love. This is how I create "my little perfect world" - and I want to take the viewer with me into it. I have been showing my paintings in regular exhibitions at home and abroad since 2010. Numerous paintings can be found in private and public collections.
