My friend Amie posed for this painting. In fact, this particular pose is just her waiting for me to find the right settings on the camera. After the shoot, when I was looking through the pictures, I found this, and it became my favourite.

Mamba
Crocodiles are so majestic, and I´m lucky to have met them many times when I lived in Africa. I actually have bitemarks on my GoPro from an encounter with a nile croodile in Botswana. This painting makes me feel deep respect towards nature, as well as a feeling of awe and empowerment.

Golden Repair
One of my friends recently fought cancer. Luckily the treatment worked and he is now cancer free. Through times of uncertainty and pain, he achieved new insight and personal growth. Now he stands victoriously at the end of the experience feeling proud and stronger than before.
His journey reminded me of the Japanese tradition kintzugi (golden repair), the art of repairing broken pottery by gluing the areas of breakage with gold.
As a philosophy it treats breakage and repair as a part of history, not something to disguise. Something that has bin broken is more valuable than it was before it broke.
I painted my friends body with white paint to make him look like a sculpture of marble or porcelain. When the paint dried, and my friend moved, the paint cracked. In the cracks I painted gold. Sending congratulations to my friend on his victory, and I send love to all those who are fighting cancer and the people who are close to them.

Victorious
Based on the original oil painting and inspiration after numerous of extreme occasions in the year of 2020; George Floyd, political divisions, love and unity.
I decided to release this print cause of its appearance of willpower and unity in the tough time we are experiencing right now.
