Inge Thøgersen

I have always dealt with creative things and art, but when I started to paint I became my favorite . For a long time I also worked as a familyterapist- and now I am painting full time.
I'm attracted to beautiful things- but also to creating things. The process of standing with a canvas, having an idea, letting the painting take over, seeing the development and ending up with something that can make other people happy. Before I started painting pictures, I made hand-printed fabrics for unique jackets.
I am fascinated by strong colors and the movement in that particular kind of painting.
Several of the paintings hide from a real-life everyday story, transformed into colors and shapes, a skew angle or expressing a dream or a change.
I am fascinated by human relationships, strengths, survival power in the everlasting changeable and often surprising human life.
In addition to humans, nature and music are a constant source of inspiration.
The light, the sounds, the moods, the colors, shapes, small details and beautiful views.
I take many photos that directly or most often indirectly inspire me with a mood or idea for a painting.
Most often, the images reflect the optimism that I experience is found in most people, even when difficulties in times try to block the view.
The paintings should preferably talk to the imagination and tell their own stories. If they only create positive energy and joy, it's also ok, since I know that positivity has an inherently self-reinforcing power.
I have made a conscious choice that it is the angle that appears in my pictures.
My paintings are colorful. I paint expressively and use many different tools,
Unless otherwise stated, the displayed images are painted with acrylic on canvas and many layers on top of each other. I paint with brushes, worn bill cards, sticks, cardboard pieces, very often the fingers and anything else.
