Welcome to my website.
Click the "Gallery-button" below and you will find a selection of my works.
In a digitized reality people are talking about the painting’s death. I try to be true to painting
as a genre and medium. With reference to the Middle East pictorial tradition and the European
new-expressionism I have found painterly solutions that unite my palette with simple figure forms
as the main constituents. My work includes subtle moods with secondary colours such as
orange, green etc.
I am very concerned about colour, the sound in colour and denominations. Would like to give people
a colour punch, likes to "play" with motives, telling stories. I often paint layer upon layer,
like the painting to "move”, a little be - not to be.
Many of the works are extremely detailed, like to call them "close-ups".
