The artist's early work shows the landscape near Gelting in calm simplicity with dynamic brushstrokes. According to the German Art historian Thomas Gädeke, the work translates Fußmann's unique artistic characteristic particularly expressively. Thus, as someone who comes from the outside, he felt the landscape of Schleswig-Holstein «[...] to be particularly precious and magnificent and appropriated it in a way that is a love that one has to acquire, that was not given to one, that was not laid in one's cradle.» Thomas Gädeke, in: Es ist Zeit, Der Maler Klaus Fußmann, documentary film by Wilfried Hauke, 2018.
