Thank you! (And Portfolio!)
What a day. The LANDPARTIE was just beautiful in every way. I am so tired that I am (almost) out of words except for:
THANK YOU!
Thank you to all the visitors!
Thank you for letting me introduce and for welcoming my art here!
Thank you for all the great talks!
Thank you for all the people who so generously and passionately bought my work!
Thank you Knud, Alex and Arnd for letting me convert your great location „die Kneipe“!
And thank you to the team that supported me with running the show, the barbecue, the bar, the hospitality, the baking and cooking, the LOVE.
My body feels like I‘ve been running a marathon every day for six days straight. Gotta rest now, will be sorting through all the photos and videos and get back to you with more impressions.
For now - here is Team Diamond, shot by Timo.
Talk soon.
Almost there: LANDPARTIE opens July 12
[english version below]
Zusammen mit Melvin habe ich diese Woche die ersten Kunstwerke für die LANDPARTIE nach Angeln an der Schlei transportiert. Es gibt noch viel zu organisieren und vorzubereiten, aber ich bin sehr zuversichtlich, dass wir alles rechtzeitig zur Eröffnung am nächsten Samstag, dem 12. Juli, in der KNEIPE in Scheggerott schaffen werden.
Hier ist der Google link.
Zwei Dinge:
1. Wenn du selbst aus Hamburg fährst und noch Platz im Auto hast, sag mir bitte Bescheid – es gibt ein paar Freunde, die der Deutschen Bahn nicht trauen und sich über eine Mitfahrgelegenheit freuen würden.
2. Wenn du Interesse an den limitierten T-Shirts „I am all out of Love Songs“ hast, bestelle sie bitte spätestens bis zum 12. Juli, da ich die Bestellung direkt nach der Landpartie aufgebe. Du kannst sie auch direkt bei der Ausstellung bestellen.
Ich hoffe, wir sehen uns nächste Woche!
LANDPARTIE! 12. Juli 2025
Von 13 Uhr bis spät. Es gibt Getränke, BBQ und ein Lagerfeuer zum Tagesausklang.
Ein großes Dankeschön an meine Unterstützer Kehrwieder Kreativbrauerei und Weingut TESCH.
ENGLISH VERSION:
Together with Melvin, I have transported the first artworks for LANDPARTIE this week. There is still a lot to organize and prepare, but I am very confident that we get it all done in time for the opening next week Saturday, July 12, at the KNEIPE in Scheggerott. Here’s the Google link.
Two things:
If you are driving yourself from Hamburg and still have space in your car, please let me know, there are a few friends who do not trust Deutsche Bahn and would love to share the ride
If you are interested in the special edition T-Shirts “I am all out of Love Songs”, please make sure to order them by July 12 the latest, as I will place the order right after the Landpartie. You can also order them in person at the exhibition.
Hope to see you all next week!
LANDPARTIE!
July 12, 2025
Doors open at 1 pm, we will be there until late.
There will be drinks and BBQ and a campfire to end the day.
A big thank you to my supporters Kehrwieder Kreativbrauerei and Weingut TESCH.
I am all out of Love Songs
I have released a new series of products (as well as the original) based upon my drawing "I am all out of Love Songs”. Visit the shop for all the details. And read some context/background below.
The shirts will be printed on demand, so please order them until July 12 (date of my next exhibition “Landpartie”. You will be able to order them at the exhibition as well.
I will collect all orders until this date and have them produced and shipped. There will be no second print run from this motive ever again!
Sometimes one of my works becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Like this one, created almost exactly a year ago: the fountain pen drawing “I am all out of Love Songs.”
Back then, times were already shitty – but right now, things seem to be getting worse by the day… I don’t know about you, but these days I almost wake up afraid to check the news – worried that one of the crazy, selfish, and cruel people running the world has once again come up with some new disaster overnight.
For my inner balance, I’m incredibly grateful that there is also so much love in my life – thanks to my wonderful family and all the friends and accomplices who surround me. I know I’m very privileged in many ways.
Of course, being an artist helps – having the opportunity to express my emotions, views, and attitude through my work, driven by the passion that has always fueled me, is a huge privilege as well. And I sincerely hope I can take you along on this journey and maybe even inspire you from time to time.
That’s why I decided to release the drawing mentioned above as a textile design and a print (the original is still available, by the way). I suspect that some of you may also be “out of Love Songs” right now… so maybe it resonates. I’ve gone a little wild with bundles, products, and options – as you can see in the online shop – but if you find something you like, I’ll be sure to send you an extra dose of hugs and kisses with it!
Oh, and just so you know – I produce the shirts & hoodies on demand, so you’d have to place your order by July 12 (in time for LANDPARTIE!). After that, everything goes into production – and I’ll never reissue this design again.
Framed & Ready For July 12!
Framing the big one. Completing this huge woodcut/painting almost 4 months after I started. Another one ready für die LANDPARTIE!
Landpartie: 12. Juli!
Landpartie!
Seit 2018 saniere ich mit meiner Familie ein Fachwerkhaus von 1866 in Wagersrott. Mit der „LANDPARTIE“ zeige ich nun mein künstlerisches Werk erstmals auch in Angeln.
Zu sehen sind meine ungewühnlichen Holzbilder - eine Kombination aus Holzschnitt und Malerei -, Zeichnungen und Skulpturen. Wir werden grillen, es gibt Kehrwieder Bier vom Fass, Wein von TESCH (und alkoholfreies natürlich auch), und am Abend lassen wir den Tag entspannt am Lagerfeuer ausklingen.
Ich freue mich auf gemeinsame Stunden mit euch - und mit der Kunst!
Für Interessierte aus Hamburg gibt es auch eine Bustour von St. Pauli nach Scheggerott und zurück: Tickets einfach hier online bestellen!

Since 2018, artist Jörg Heikhaus (aka Alex Diamond) and his family have been renovating a half-timbered house from 1866 in Wagersrott. With the ‘LANDPARTIE’, he is now showing his artistic work for the first time in Angeln, where you can see his unique wooden pictures - a combination of woodcut and painting -, drawings and sculptures. We'll have a barbecue, Kehrwieder beer on tap, wine from TESCH (and non-alcoholic wine too, of course), and in the evening we'll round off the day by the campfire and look forward to spending time with you - and with art!
For those interested from Hamburg, there is also a bus tour from St. Pauli to Scheggerott and back: Simply order tickets online here:
