After a far too long break, it was a fantastic experience getting back to the acrylics. Without really intending it, I've developed a slightly new style in these new paintings. Something a bit more raw. And that feels very right. I'm very pleased with how this one ended up. The contrasts between the bright orange…

I had such a blast last week getting back to the acrylics. With one finished painting down, I just couldn't wait starting on my second. This time, though, I wanted it to look a bit more raw. Giving that palette knife some serious impact. So I tried out a new technique. I started with some…

I've wanted to get back to acrylic painting for a while now. But it has felt like such a comprehensive medium in these fast-moving days. A need of too much time and equipment. But, that can't stand in the way of it forever. So I decided to just get on with it, and utilize the…

I've been kind of occupied lately, putting "old" paintings in frames. Because I think they deserve it, after so much neglect and insecurity about them.

Having fun with the digital programs again. This time I added a fishing boat to an acrylic painting I made last year. The big wave in the distance don't seem to bother the captain. Or maybe he hasn't noticed it yet. In that case, let's hope he does. Have a great day!
This is an acrylic painting I made in march this year, showing a rough sea blown up by the storm. I just wanted to paint some ocean and waves again, which just felt great. There's not much more to say about it, really. I hope you enjoy it as well! And: All of my acrylic…

These paintings are a result of me wanting to do some acrylic painting, but with very limited amounts of colour. Just a few drops of yellow and red at hand, and a small amount of blue, made my sunset scene look a bit different than usual: It was a fun exercise, though, trying to find…

I've missed doing some old, messy paintings using a palette knife. As it is a bit messy, though, it's harder to put into the schedule. So it's been a while since my last acrylic painting. Not anymore, though. This is my first acrylic painting in about four months: To be hones I just wanted to…
