VIOLWORKS

In 1989 I began my training as a wood sculptor at the Werkkunstschule in Flensburg. Besides carving in wood and working in clay, plaster, concrete and stone, I gained a lot of experience in design and drawing... After leaving the school I went to Bremen, where I began to carve heads for the viols of Henner. This is where the instrument-making bug infected me, so I went to the Newark School of Violin Making to learn the making and repairing of violins... When leaving this three-year course, I decided to go to London for two years and work with Adam Whone to get experience in the repairing and restoration of old violins. Since then, I have been working in a few other violin shops to gain more experience.
