2012
The Beginning
The start of my drawings containing buildings goes all the way back to 2012/2013.
Initial pencil strokes on plain paper, discovering a deep affinity for architectural forms and elevation silhouettes.
2013
First Conceptualization
There was little detail, but there was a vision.
Even without advanced shading technique, the foundational spatial sense and dramatic vertical layouts were already present.
2014
Architectural Precision
Moving on to 2014, I started adding more architectural details.
Columns, pediments, and rhythmic window tiers began to structure the artwork with authentic architectural discipline.
2014
Karlskirche, Vienna
I started taking inspiration from real buildings.
Direct study of Fischer von Erlach's monumental baroque masterpiece sparked a lifelong passion for grand domed structures.
2014 / 2015
Vienna Cityscapes
Deepening the classical architectural vocabulary across Austrian vistas.
Combining street-level perspectives with layered architectural skylines.
2016
Style Forming
The style was slowly beginning to form.
Moving away from pure reference replication towards imaginary urban worlds with organic architectural density.
2016
The Breakthrough
This was the real breakthrough that shaped my personal style.
The pivotal moment: layered vertical towers, sweeping bridge spans, and ultra-fine cross-hatching came together into a singular, unmistakable identity.
2017
Personal Touches
I started adding my personal touches and more detail.
Every facade received individualized masonry textures, hanging lanterns, and delicate balustrades.
2017
The Era of Domes
I started adding a lot of domes.
Sweeping ribbed cupolas and towering spires became defining hallmarks, adding majestic silhouette contrast across every skyline.
2018–2020
Personal Style Formed
Soon it formed into a personal style.
A cohesive universe of towering stone edifices, cascading stairways, and atmospheric graphite depth that commands instant recognition.
2021–Present
Extreme Precision
In the following years, each drawing had more and more detail.
Over a decade of continuous daily practice pushed the technique to extraordinary heights — rendering individual bricks, shingles, and light gradations across museum-scale originals.
