This is a more detailed and realistic painting than I usually make. Which also makes it look less real. It's harder to make them look good, though. So I'm happy with how it turned out. I get that fjord vibe. Which was what I was aiming for. But lots to keep working on. As always.…
Another day, another painting. This one is, hopefully, showing a wet day in the fields. Some wet corn. Some wet grass. And a barn being colored by the green sky. I hope you are having a good day!
I'm not particularly pleased with this watercolour painting. But I thought I should post it anyway. It looked better before it got overworked. And a lot brighter. But, as I've had a little break from watercolor painting, it was bound to happen. It was fun to paint, though. And another lesson learned.
I’m not sure whether or not I like this painting. But it was quite interesting painting it. After a quick wash, blending some red and yellow watercolor, I decided to scrape on the rest of the paint using a palette knife. I first used some black gouache for the cliff. Then some dark green and…
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…

Well, I didn't do a terrific job with the photo of this painting, to say it mildly. I tried to make the background as bright as possible using photoshop. But, as you can see, that made the colors kind of neon strong. So, it might be a good idea squinting at this one. So your…
Remember those days when you were down at the beach as a kid? Picking up a stick, starting to draw stuff in the sand. Then you realized you'd made the drawing to close to the water. The tide ominously reaching towards it. Before, inevitably, it washed it all away. This digital painting/drawing is just like…
To get a clear view of where you are, you need to know where you started. At least I guess that's true. Well, I was browsing through my media library on wordpress the other day. And suddenly I'd reached the bottom. Not in the depressing way it might sound like.. The bottom being my first…
This is the result of a digital painting I started on, having no clue about what I wanted to paint. It started, like it often has recently, by painting some waves and a ship. But it just didn't feel right. And it didn't look right either. So I went in another direction. The mast of…
I've been painting a lot of old sailing ships lately. It has just been too fun to stop. So here is another one, being led the way by one of those old, rough seabirds. Now, however, I feel that I've produced all my sailing ship ambitions for a while. So there might just be a…
