Kai's Kite Site

Hello, welcome to my Kite Site. Here you will find a lot of information on kites from around the world and the people who made them. I started making kites fall 1990 and was a known kite-aholic. I hope you enjoy this visual experience.

Something new: Please note that I am actually more drawing than making kites right now. There is a link to a slide show with some of my drawings below in this page. Have a look. Thanks.

Kai's Kite Site - Sub-Pages

This is a hopefully growing collection of interesting things about kites, interesting people and amazing artists creating flying arts and sculptures. Kai's Kite Site contains so far approx. 40 html documents containing about 200 images (mostly scanned photos). It is built and maintained by me and protected by copyright 1995-2003 .

You can see who I am. This will bring you to my biopage with a short kite biography.

Visit galleries of kites made by me. I specialize in making single line kites.

Drawings by Kai:
I recently started to draw, see some examples. The real drawings look better than the scans. After the slideshow click the back button on your browser to get back to this page. Some of the drawings can be bought. I am looking for a real good gallery for modern art to exhibit and promote my drawings. There exist poems for most drawings explaining my feelings. Please e-mail me if you are interested. This is just a small selection of about 40 drawings I made recently. Some of the better ones I kept to myself for now.
