Changing or developing paintings


 I have made several versions of my previous home for 30 years at ES 29 Oslo. This is the last one made during our COVID-19 quaranteen periode. Not the best but finished and presented to the world..


Non figurative paintings have never been by best works, but this Composition is an example of how I think room decorations can be if colors are the main purpose. Landscape or portret style is up to you.


Based on a photo from the Geiranger fjord I made this painting called Mountain farm


This version of a central square in Ålesund I finished today.

I am allways interested in customer´s requests and price offers for my works. It is only up to you during this corona discount weeks.

Life in home quarantine due to Covid-19

Returning to Norway from Andalusia required 14 days in imposed home quarantine due to the pandemic Covid-19.
Two weeks in almost isolation have given us some challenges linked to my underlying challenges after organ transplantaion and repression of the immune system. It would be bad if my 22 prolonged years should end in a viral disease.


Compared to many others in quarantine Tullen and I feel lucky to have family around us, represented here with Rikke and Tor-Marius who bring food and wine to our apartment. They are not entering our flat, but put the shopping bags outside the door. Communication from the hallway with at least 2 metres distance is ok for a short time.


Bags with groceries are delivered once a week but due to the limited dinner possibilities, the Cava must be used also to fish grateng.


                     (I miss the La Farola bief)

The national lockdown make challenges to daily activities.


My wife has decided that we wash the complete apartment. Every rooms, cabinets, drawers and store rooms have been cleaned during the two first quarantine weeks.


The third week have been used to prepare our balcony for warmer days. The grill is ready for bbq and my easel is ready for more paintings. The "primavera" in Andalusia is swaped to "Vår" in Norway.



A complete differet information from our side:

 In September our new RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid will be delivered and we can think about something else than the Coronavirus development around the world, and especially in our second home Spain.
