This year, in 2012, it is 44 years ago, that Fritz and family embarked on the ocean crossing, leaving behind an adventurous past, that certainly holds, by far, not only good memories.
The motifs for painting, sketching and drawing were many, however.
In the valleys near the Black Forest, the picturesque villages had Fritz taking his children for many morning walks, to get "Frühsport" (morning sport, or that early workout) and lots of fresh air. Sketches were turned into linol cuts, and many oil paintings on small boards were the result of exploring the villages on foot, from 10 years of residing in the village of Döffingen, near Stuttgart in southern Germany
