About Thor Rafnsson

I received my education at The Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and now live and work in Denmark. My years in Iceland have given me a lot of inspiration and I still, do.

The great contrasts, the beautiful language, and the harsh nature appeal to me, which is reflected in my paintings.

I use a variety of techniques and materials in my work, including oils, and acrylics.

I am particularly drawn to the use of light and color, and I endeavor to create paintings that are both harmonious and pleasing to the eye.

My goal is to inspire those who see my work to look more carefully at the world around them, and to see the beauty in the everyday.

As well as my artistic vision, I also try to express mankind's internal spiritual room, where the creation of the images occurs, and the emotions that come with it. My paintings are not just a representation of the physical world, but also an expression of something deeper, something that lies within us all. I believe that by creating art, we can make the world a more beautiful and meaningful place.

I hope that you will enjoy looking at my work as much as I enjoyed creating it. I believe that art has the power to move people in ways that words cannot, and I am constantly looking for new and interesting subjects to paint.
