Though taking up classes for painting and sketching at first, Penck learned the art of painting autodidactically, since he was denied a spot at art schools in Dresden and Berlin. It meant a tough start to his artist career – working occasional jobs and following his passion a bit aimlessly and on a random basis. Nevertheless he found a style for which he is famous today: stickman paintings. Depicting human feelings and emotions, dealing with political messages and other themes, reduced to a central basis and meaning.
The artist constantly developed his style of painting and started to paint in a more neoexpressionist style. Penck is considered among the most influencing and important German artist of modern times.

Strongly colourful and expressive in his style.
