Sankt Peter Ording

My husband spent three weeks in a rehab clinic in Sankt Peter Ording, which is on the north west edge of Germany. I joined him for the last week and the sun joined us too! it was a warm summery week accompanied by a lot of wind, which is very typical for this region. The sandy beaches are known for their expanse and at low tide the sea is so far away you can't see it.


Everyday life at the clinic was characterized by regularity. Fixed times for meals and other activities.




In the evening we often went to the Böhl beach and enjoyed the nice, quiet atmosphere in a beach chair.




While my husband was having his treatments, I went for short walks and explored the surroundings.




At the weekend we visited Tetenbüll, Tönning and cycled along the dyke with a tailwind.

La Gomera 2023

Back in cold Hamburg after six weeks of winter escape in Valle Gran Rey, La Gomera. Inspite of some health problems we had a good time, enjoyed the sun, waves, light and this beautiful island.


This time I wanted to experience to sketch with gouache colors . It was a real struggle and I am still not sure if we will become good friends, the gouche and me…
