I was inspired by some childhood memories. There is layers of paint, i start with acrylic and continued with oil. It is better to paint the figure with oil to get the right light in the shadows and the highlight.

I feel my paintings before I paint them. I listen to the inner voice. I try to see the painting for myself but it is difficult. The further I go with this thought, the more elements of the painting appear to me. The figure becomes clear. I take photos that I use as a reference for the paint. I always paint the figur first and the background I have to feel along the way. I experiment with the bakgroud and the figure until it feels right. The meaning of the painting becomes like this.
I see that the paintings arouse feelings in others, maybe it is thoughts and feelings, or memories they have left behind.
My paintings are rooted in a figurative expression. I want to convey moods and emotions. I paint the small moments of life and give the viewer room to interpret the paintings so that they can relate to their own feelings and experience.
