What the art does not tell you about the artist
Timeline
2007
The Early Years
I was born in Saxony, Germany, home to the artist Will Schestak, my great-grandfather. My family relocated after a few years to live at the Bavarian-Austrian border and I grew up among the rugged limestone ranges of the Alps.

First Artwork
While attending an Austrian High School I began to explore art on my own, experimenting with both realistic and imaginary themes. Storytelling quickly grew to an essential part of my creative work. At that time I also came across Welsh Mythology and developed a great artistic interest in The Mabinogion and similar stories.
Since 2023
VISITS TO THE UK
My travels have led me to the British Isles several times now, leaving me with a strong connection to their unique landscapes, people and mythology.
What began with a holiday in Wales in 2023 has turned into regular visits to Scotland and other corners of the UK.
My adoration for these places and the stories they tell now finds expression in many of my artworks.
