Wherever you are – have a good one 🙂
I have recently opened an account at Etsy.com where I have several paintings listed for sale. It is now possible to purchase my paintings online and have them shipped to your door – no matter where you live! Check it out and see what is currently available for sale:
The following recent portraits are inspired by the great Art deco artist and designer, Jean Dunand.
Most of my paintings are currently on exhibition at the Danish National Television Studio (TV 2) in Odense. Here’s a b/w photograph of me in between two of my large women portraits. The one on my left is Her Majesty Queen Margrethe of Denmark. The exhibition will run until after Easter.
As soon as I saw this gorgeous yellow dress Claire wears in the TV show Outlander I knew I had to paint it! I just love how the yellow hues and luscious green background communicate with each other.
A couple of photographs for @Artwork_in_Studio. It may be bleak outside but it’s a festival of colours in my studio!
A small section of a larger painting in the making. The finished piece will be 250x130cm. I am using a lot of techniques from my classical training for the dress fabrics which is a lot of fun. This is blended with modern decorative details. I love working on larger surfaces and these lovely colours really do brighten […]
I always seem to get a lot of painting done during the winter months. This winter is no exception.

I like to think it brings a little […]
I am currently studying The Mustard Seed Garden Manual of Painting. A fascinating read and insight into the world of traditional Chinese painting. I am learning a lot and making little sketches as I go along. Here’s one from my sketchbook. Am excited to see where this journey takes me.
Love your fabrics and dress detail. Beautiful

Katherine, I am a fan. I must say that I’ve been following you for not long, maybe a year or two… I really appreciate your whispy elongated figures…I instantly recognize it is you….but, when you paint in this style, your talent shines! These bold “portraits” offer the viewer some challenges! I am so intrigued by the drape of the fabric (I can hear the ruffling of the fabric) around a full body, but then that green gloved hand flattens out (as does her face) so, for me, it offers some sense of surrealism (intended or not) that creates a story. I think you’re in your true element in this piece, it goes beyond a pretty picture.
