Hi everyone and merry December!
Today I have added a new limited edition print to my webshop. It’s called Revolution Ballet - named after the most famous revolution namely the French one. To get in the right spirit for x-mas I have been rather obsessed with the French revolution the last month or two. I think maybe unconsciously I’ve been drawn to places in history that was chaotic or especially challenging.
In the summer I took a 4 week break from painting. My first in years I think. I spent the time making ceramics and biking around the countryside for hours. When I came back in the studio in September I went at it with my oil sticks. I didn’t touch a paintbrush for the past few months, only the big fat oil sticks and here we are with a group of new paintings. I like to see them as enlarged fragments of my earlier works. In January a group of these new paintings will be on display at Hans Alf Gallery in the project room for the winter group show.
The next months the paintings for my solo show at Hans Alf Gallery that opens in August 2022 will start to take shape in the studio together with other projects I tend to start when I should be focused on something specific.
Happy holidays to all of you.
