ABOUT ME AND MY WORK
ABOUT ME AND MY WORK

From the start in 2015, I have now shown my oil paintings at some 35 art exhibitions of which 9 were exhibitions with my paintings only. 10 years have now passed since the startup and I still make figurative oil paintings inspired by coast-, land-, road- and cityscapes. I’m also very inspired by some of the old masters… even to the point of making my own ‘cover versions’ and ‘mash-ups’ of some of their masterpieces. My main focus however has been and continues to be on Scandinavian coastscapes. Having lived at the coast nearly all my life may explain my deep fascination for the diverse and dynamic coastlines -  where land meets the ever changing, erosive, eternal and enigmatic sea. In 2023(12) I started also revisiting my geological past in order to make artistic renditions of subsurface geology. I call this additional line ‘Subscapes’.
Some 150 of my 360 oil paintings are on display here at my web-page. 19 of my paintings have been chosen for digital prints on high quality Giclée-paper (limited editions, numbered and signed). They are also on display here together with their corresponding original paintings.
My mentors and inspirators through the years have been the following artists: Artdozent and painter Gerhart Ruhland, painter Odd Emil Skullerud, painter Anne Langholt Appaydinli, painter Leif Nyland and my art-friends in Malegruppe79 (=
Paintinggroup79).
