“Mr. Hockney teaching me how to paint a pool” (2021) 🏖️
Oil on canvas, 138x168 cm
Private collection

As a figurative painter I can mix fiction and reality however I please, and I can create any scenario with anyone, real or fictional, or in between.

Like learning to paint a pool by young David Hockney by his LA pool.

«The Tea Party» 2020 ☕
Oil on canvas, 203 x 246 cm (79,9 x 96,8 in)

It was painted in 2020, during the last six months of Trumps presidency, and I did not know if he would be re-elected or if it would even be relevant in a year. But 5 years later it’s more relevant then ever.

In the painting, Trump is the mad hatter from Alice and Wonderland who has invited 3 friends from around the world for some tea and cake, discussing what exactly? Various goods and American mail-in-ballots were spotted.

The painting is referencing one of my favourite painters of all time, Manet, and his work “Le dejeuner sur l’herbe” (1863).

It was painted by free hand, without underpainting, sketches, grids or projector, a messy, complicated, uncontrollable yet fun way of painting, that I could never have done today. But I can enjoy looking back at the steps of my painting-journey!

It was exhibited at @hostutstillingen 2022 💖
