Felix Klee
Artist
Tell us a bit about yourself:
I like the sound of snow if one walks on it. I like rainy summer days and forrest earth under my bare feet.
What do you make?
I paint, draw, take photos, write songs, instrumentals, short-stories and poems. At the moment I collect the most peaceful moments of people from all around the globe. Untill now I´ve collected more than 120 stories and I´mstill looking for people willing to support me in creating a webside and flyers for them.
Where else on the web can we find you?
You can find me on Deviantart (this page is always up to date) and you can find my older works on my personal page (which is inactive at the moment as I´m working on a new one)
What did you dream about last night?
Last night? I didn´t sleep much. My cat simply needed to much space in bed, so that it was kind of difficult to get any sleep at all.
What inspires you?
Life and love, fear and sadness, war and peace. I mainly illustrate thoughts or lines out of my diary, therefore I´d say that my art is mainly inspired by my daily life. However other artists also had great influence: René Magritte, Frida Kahlo, Friedensreich Hundertwasser, Salvador Dali and manymany more.
Where do you live and what do you like about it?
I live in rural Bavaria in Germany, close to the Austrian border and the Bavarian forrests. I like the white cows sleeping under the old apple-trees. We used to call the "polar bears" when we were children.
What is your biggest fear?
To loose the people who mean so much to me.
Name a few of your favorite movies \ books \ websites \ bands:
Wow, it´s difficult to make a choice.
I love the movies "Paris, Texas", "Der Himmel über Berlin", "Harold and Maude" and "Night on Earth".
Besides all the art-history books I liked "Everything is illuminated", "Extremely loud and incredibly close", short stories and Erich Fried poems.
My favourite bands are probably The John Butler Trio, Bobby McFerrin, Ani DiFranco, Iron and Wine and Xavier Rudd.
What are you really good at? What are you really bad at:
I´m good at making people smile, I guess. I´m really bad at remembering things and at trying not to break anything.
What is your favourite thing to eat?
How would you like to be remembered?
As a story-telling, painting and smiling dancing bear.
What is the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to you?
Puh, probably when I could not remember how to tie my shoes anymore.
Anything else you would like to say:
