Paintings - made by hand..

It has been a while now since i posted some real paintings... done with paint, canvas and what ever is in my big drawer with stuff i collected since when ever ... These are unlike my latest photoshop works not very colourfull but silent, calming and crisp.. 

Colour, coma, computer, commercial...

I have been doing a lot of commercial projects lately - have a lot of fun using lots of colours.. Must admit that Photoshop has almost become my favorite brush... Me and my computer are really good friends these days... This collage is a mix of photos and slogans from the client and details from my paintings and drawings. 90x90 cm.

Here are a few comments on the workshop (in danish):

...MANGE TAK for en meget givende, inspirerende workshop. Et ordentlig energikick!! Flot forberedt. Man følte sig bare godt taget i mod...

...spændende at høre om dit arbejde både konkret med billederne, dine galleri-erfaringer og dit arbejde ifht. virksomheder, dejligt at du vil dele det -inspirerende at høre om!...

...at du måske provekerer nogens "passe-på-æstetik" ved at turde male og demonstrere på et af dine fine malerier. Bliv ved med at være ligeså frygtesløs -det er overbevisende som pædagogisk fif, især fordi det opleves som ærligt...

...at fornemme din meget umiddelbare tilgang til den kreative proces -det er vældig befriende...

...rigtig glad for kurset, så mit hjerte og min hjerne er fyldt op med ny energi...

Power colours..?

I have been working on these big paintings for some time now. It´s funny how i seem to get used to the very bright, powerful, spontaneous  colours... Any how they light up the whole studio and i actually don´t look forward to the day when i have to se them off...

Two more artists..

We are actually three artists in our family -these two are my absolute favourite ones : )

flowers and artists i like

The studio is so nice and bright these mornings.. 

Art in the window by me and good inspiring books from two great danish artists Ken Denning and Malene Landgren. Pillows from Meyer-Lavigne, H&M and Ikea.

Art and interior for a dentist

I just did this proposal for art and interior for a dentist. She needed something light, calming and beautiful for the waiting room and clinic.
I hope she will accept - i think this can actually make going to the dentist an ok experience..

Bright colours and a touch of black

Here is a little glimpse of the walls right now.

The first post there is about our Christmas Bazar - so tjeck it out and hope to se you there!

Hello Big Companies here i come..

I would love to do more projects for big companies with enough time and enough money to do a really good job.
So i made these small 20x 20 cm. photoshop collages using photos of my paintings to promote myself.

The text says (in danish):
Lambda storformatprint - er fotografisk print i høj kvalitet der egner sig godt til store og atypiske formater.
De grafiske værker består af detaljer fra mine malerier, som er fotograferet og viderebearbejdet på computer.

Fall is now - Christmas is coming...

..it is so cold outside and actually also in the studio, so i put some warmth in the paintings.
Sidsel and I decided to have a small exclusive christmas bazar with art and design in the studio the 6th and 7th december. More about that later.

At home...
