oil painting
Pappa i Lappland
A portrait of the painter’s father in a thick sweater, in the cold of Lapland. A palette of blues and heavy texture in the wool and the background.
Nuages en Bretagne
A twisted tree on a windswept Breton coast under a bright blue sky. The branches are built up in impasto so thick they seem to grow out of the canvas.
Ljungan
A river in northern Sweden, crossed by a power line. Pale skies and thick strokes on the water, where the landscape and the line live side by side.
Forêt de Merelle I
Tall trunks in a forest, the treetops in soft light and the undergrowth in cooler, darker tones. Painted with a palette knife.
Forêt de Merelle II
Slender trees lean in different directions under a bright sky that breaks through the leaves. Dappled yellows and browns on the forest floor.
Milon de Crotone
The Greek athlete Milo of Croton, trapped and attacked by a lion in a golden field. A study of strength turned to struggle, against a calm landscape.
Kronjuvelen
A woman with long dark hair in a green shawl, calm against a burning orange sky. Thick strokes in the background and a quiet gaze in the middle of it.
Solnedgång över ängen
A fiery red and orange sunset over a meadow and a winding road, the land already dark below. Oil and pigments on canvas.
La Porte Cachée
Part of the Azur series. A hidden door in warm Riviera light and shadow, painted in rich, layered texture.
Fanfan
A woman looking down to the left, in soft pinks and warm browns over a deep blue ground. The white highlights are mixed with phosphorescent pigment and glow faintly in the dark.
