About me

The special light of the Nordic (urban) landscapes fascinates me again and again. They are permeated by atmospheric light and never rest.

My naturalistic paintings are the result of the combination of Plein Air painting in gouache, oil or pastel, directly on site and the work in the studio.

That means I can put layers of paint on top of each other, light over darker colours. It opens up new dimensions and implementation possibilities for me.
