Original artwork description:

A mixture of the highest quality oil paints, inks, glosses, glazes, fine glitters are applied in a multitude of layers. This alchemy of techniques result in a kaleidoscopic jewel like composition of rich pigments that prismatically reveal the radiance of nature. Initially washes are built like up in tender veils of colour. Later, much bolder marks are used with an energetic dance around the canvas. This part of the process is full of raw emotion and I literally pour my heart and soul into the image. The final layer of the painting demand focus and utter presence.

I always work outside, so lacy ice and strong winds have as much influence on the final painting as golden sunshine and gentle breezes. The elements, in a very direct way, dictate how and where the paint falls.

Ultimately I paint as a prayer and surrender to the place where the mystery unfolds.
