Life
Pöppelmann, who now lives in Steinfurt in the Münsterland region and started painting as an autodidact , was a prize winner in 1998 and 2000 at Europe's largest "Wildlife Art" exhibition, Wild in de Natuur in Enschede / Netherlands . The painter received international attention through exhibitions in Germany , the Netherlands, Belgium , Sweden , the USA and Japan . In addition, he has contributed to numerous book illustrations , including:
- The hunt - KG Blüchel, Könemann-Verlag
- Birds of prey - G.Trommer, Ulmer-Verlag
- Predatory game today - B. Hespeler, BLV
- Birds of prey - W. Bednarek, Landbuch-Verlag
- Kenya - Hagen, Kilda-Verlag
- Best of Wildlife - R. u. R. Wolf, North Light Books, USA
His portraits and still lifes , which also depict unusual elements such as construction machinery , repeatedly show a reference to nature.
A characteristic of the painter is above all his ability to capture the different animal species in their natural movement. His pictures should also give impetus for a philosophical consideration of nature.
