During my training as a graphic designer and illustrator
I learned to work on paper and other painting grounds.
At that time there were no computers for this purpose.

In professional life then I have become increasingly more
involved in using the computer.
Now, 40 years later and soon enjoying pension,
I feel like returning to the old techniques –
drawing and painting on canvas with real colours.
The emphasis on traditionel craftsmanship
(preparing and painting on canvas) is particularly
important to me.

A wooden framework with a mounted canvas.
The whole construction protected by a wooden frame.
You can understand all the steps, side wards and
from behind. You can see the canvas, the primer and
the multiple layers of color. And – the wooden picture frame
is an important part of the whole object too.
