Emotion

Main page

Feelings and atmospheres were the starting point to my paintings. I started with an idea and desire to describe different kind of feelings and persons with their feelings. The idea was also that the persons would be symbolically stripped, naked with their feelings. So thoughts and feelings are bare and open.
Also the atmospheres are important, as is the great masters painting technique, which helped to create and construct atmospheres.
Such being the case, my paintings are calm pictures and moments from persons and feelings.
Feelings are part of life and my paintings are moments of life.

In the end, the beauty is in the eyes of a viewer and the viewer can interpret the paintings through her/his own experience. Main thing is to waken feelings.
