What makes me paint
The wish to paint usually begins with something I see…
Some shrubs that have an interesting shape, flowers, an object, the way a person moves, a pattern resulting from a shadow, an object remainding me of something, something commonplace that carries the promise that by painting it I could transform it into something extraordinary…
My painting usually starts off with a classical medium in mind: a portrait,
A landscape, a still life – getting mixed up as the picture develops.
The portrayed turns out to be a bird or a monkey, a still life becomes a landscape
Or the other way round, some activity situated in a landscape gets an intimate
Feeling like objects arranged on a table.
Shrubs and trees find their way on a stage – like space, pretending to be a
Landscape, serving as background for a girl kicking a ball.
Every time I start off on a new canvas, I think, this one picture will surpass all
Previous in it´s beauty and boldness –
The disappointment in the end drives me to try again….
