REVERSE SAFARI is a series of four artworks featuring a safari jeep in a vast, safari-like landscape. Inside the jeep, figures are looking outward. Their eyes are carved out in the front layer of the work and positioned in a layer behind. This construction makes the eyes appear to follow the viewer from every angle.

Around the image, the text reads: “CAREFUL! IT’S WATCHING US. STAY CALM AND KEEP YOUR EYES ON IT.” These words shift the perspective: the viewer becomes the object of observation. The usual relationship between observer and observed is reversed; it is not the animal that is being watched, but the person standing in front of the artwork.

The series plays with looking, being looked at, and the viewer’s position within the image.

A school of small fish forms one big, hungry one; layered, bold, and ready to bite. But one fish didn’t play along. It swam off alone, right out of the painting, without looking back. On its back: TOO LATE. CATCH ME IF YOU CAN is a playful nod to instinct, escape, and the courage to go your own way; no matter what the others are doing.

STROKE A CACTUS is a series of artworks that capture the mystique and beauty of cacti. These pieces are painted in 2D, but the nails sticking out of the wooden background create a surprising 3D effect. The cacti seem almost alive, inviting you to touch them. But beware! For those who like to touch everything with their hands, it is better to leave these cacti alone, as the sharp nails can be dangerous. STROKE A CACTUS is an experience that challenges both visually and tactically, while also warning about the sharp boundaries of beauty. #InteractiveArt #CactusArt #3DEffects #VisualExperience #ArtWithEdge

Gary WilsonCollector from Australia
"My husband and I have been fans of Frank's art for many years – it's funny, colorful, and always different. By now, we are proud owners of several of his original works, and I keep discovering new pieces that speak to me. The communication with Frank is always fun and easy with every purchase! I will definitely continue to expand our collection in the future and am already looking forward to everything that’s yet to come…"
Sibylle Menzel-LeuchtCollector from Germany
"Frank's portfolio is a strong collection of works that demonstrate a unique artistic vision and a high level of technical skill. The works are visually engaging, emotionally resonant, and conceptually thought-provoking. The artist's ability to combine these elements effectively makes their portfolio a standout."
