HANS-GÖRAN ERIKSSON
From his Stockholm based studio, he dispatches his arts to all corners of the world; Europe, US and Far East. His work hang in loft apartments in New York, private homes of collectors in Milano & Paris, corporation boardrooms in Sweden and in stylish homes.
The way I see it, my art is for everyone not just a well-heeled few. I believe that the best art makes you feel better, uplifted, inspired. Too often art sets out to shock, perplex and disturb. I would like to leave that job for the intellectuals. My art is about expressing joy, warmth and human kindness. I don't take myself too serious, but I do take my art work seriously.
I paint primarily abstract art with dripping acrylic and oil on canvas, board and steel plates and I also use Gesso as part of the painting process. Not allowing the Gesso to dry and I blend acrylic paint directly on the surface. In some paintings I use a combination of materials and paint to create a collage. Colour composition and esthetical balance is also important.
Lately I have started to work with digital print of my original painting, on which I also add paint - it is called Mixed Media.
