"One of my focuses is plein air painting. I work in my own garden or by the Danish Baltic Sea. Over the years, I have developed a method of working outdoors that allows me to finish large-format canvases in a single session while capturing the mood of the day. The constantly changing weather and light conditions influence, either delay or speed up my painting process and composition. This way of painting is about capturing the immediate impression, the mood or atmosphere of the scene in a fresh and intuitive way, similar to how a musician reads a piece of music from the sheet."
