For René

See, René, You got me crying now. This painting is just gorgeous and I’m deeply moved by the dedication. If I ever was to find myself in a balloon this would be the one! Thank You SO much and a thousand cyberhugs - at least! - to YOU!

This balloon is in my opinion by far the most authentic of them all! Did You pose?

Hello Noah!

For obvious reasons this is my favourite too... No, I did not pose, which was probably for the best - Renés imaginery lakealike is in this case much more beautiful than the real one! ;-)

Oh dear noah,
I never had designs on painting or creating a portrait of somebody "real" living, not in physiognomic nor in nude appearance. The balloon-serie is an outstanding attempt of vision to get rid of terrestrial & temporate weight by means of art.
(unfortunately I´m no astronaut who went through weigtlessness, just simple Austro-naut).
Which beholder may say that my "red balloon" - see my blog - has something to do with soccer - it will be published these days illustrating a soccer-drama, see: http://www.burgenland.at/aktuell/806
my dedication to Annika is a poor tribute for somebody I met by cyberway I think feeling in similar spheres. - her statement above is a little bit exaggerated, art can´t beat reality. (but I don´t deny there is a lakealike-muse...)

Thank You for the clarification, René! The rest of the audience is participating with enthusiasm allthough attentively quiet - it took another bold Austro-naut to ask the lingering intriguing question, eh? Noah? :-)
