Art-Ridola

I am a Norwegian painter based in Scotland since 2026.

I am inspired by the enigma of nature and it’s elements and by human emotions and feelings.

I am also influenced by my Norwegian, Scandinavian, background and culture from the high North, the vast open sea, the storms and the white snow. I know how light and darkness and colours influence us in so many ways. This is what informs my art.

I use acrylic and oil paint and mixed media on both larger and smaller canvas and board. 

My works are abstract and may have some level of animistic representation. I usually have an intuitive approach and I like contrasts between the spontanious and the deliberate. I search for the subtle and the obvious, the playful and the immediate and above all – colours, light and energy.
