A strange quick one! Drawing with crayons and colour pencils.

One quick one from the road....Thanks to the crayons of one of my friends..Strange it is;-)!

Intense abstraction

 

Drawing, Yellow

It´s a sunny day in Denmark today. And let me therefore show you a "summer-thing"
Meet "Yellow". One of my recent drawings.---What do painters do, when they do not paint...
they make drawings (and more).

Drawing, I bakkerne/ In the hills

One of my drawings...

I bakkerne/ In the hills, 2012.

There are times when I use drawings as a means to make the right painting..This one went before a big painting..
Sometimes my drawings stand well alone.
I like the "roughness" of the drawing compared to my paintings.
 It is difficult to explain  - but it is about the texture of the paper (this is made for watercolours)..- about the small imperfections. (It is like with people..Imperfect people are more fun:-)

Stairs...

Ok now..these are a set of stairs close to my home..Since I as very young studiet  the art of
M.C. Escher...and later on climbed numerous stairs of historical buildings..I am intrigued
by them,,This concept of climbing and often being presented to different angles on the same view.
It is almost philosophical...correction it is philosophical;-)

By the way ...go study Escher: http://www.mcescher.com/

Selfgrown cities under a golden sky

Winter morning dressed in blue

Darkness & Light

"Darkness & Light". Exhibited at "Contrasts" in 2011.

I must admit: I would like my art to end up with good people. This one did.
Even though it´s painted as a city on a hillside. I find it rather amusing that people see their pills
in it. It hangs at a pharmacy..

Dragon

 

Detail of "Dragon"...I painted a rather large picture (80 x 80 cm) a short while ago ..Until the end of february 2012 I´m showing it at our gallery in my artists association: Kunstspiralen. (www.kunstspiralen.dk). After that it will be moving to another place ..Art must be shown;-)

I have a fondness for mythology.And at the time I have several projects which are inspirede by some of the tales, that I was told as a child or read about at the time or later in my life. Even in modern times those dragons, squids, ravens or snakes mean something to many of us. I hope I will be spared of a world where children are told of computers or mobile phones..
