In 2016, the city of Hilchenbach organized an exhibition of various of his pictures in the city museum in Wilhelmsburg in memory of the painter .

One of his best-known works is the watercolor Marktplatz Hilchenbach , which u. a. shows the former Hilchenbach city director Hans Christhard Mahrenholz . The picture, which the former art teacher at the Jung-Stilling-Gymnasium created in 1984/1985, was exhibited between 2017 and 2019 in the council chamber of the city of Hilchenbach . In the course of the so-called “picture dispute” in April 2019, it was temporarily removed from the council chamber and later made accessible to the public again.

The self-portrait (1976) of the painter gives an insight into his life: a bookcase and paintings are in the background, to the right of him are canvases.
