"The earth is a wonderful planet in the middle of the universe, and man could, if he wanted, live in peace and tolerability both with each other and with other beings here on earth. Instead, we allow a few people to ruin the lives of millions here on earth."

Today's toys - Linocut, print on paper 42 x 30 cm

"I was born in 1959 in Denmark. I have produced art all my life because it has always been a necessity for me to use both hemispheres of my brain, as in addition to being creative I am also very academich and have taken three different university degrees. However, I have never received an art education, but have of course taken part in various courses within various art forms.

I only started exhibiting in 2010 because it has never been important to me to show my art to the outside world. In 2010, however, I chose to exhibit for the first time, and I had a desire to get to know the art world better. This has resulted in me exhibiting since 2010 at both censored and uncensored exhibitions in many places in Denmark as well as in e.g. New York, San Diego, London, Rome, Venice and several other places in Italy as well as in Vienna and Munich.

In addition to exhibitions, you will find my art represented in many international art books and art magazines. I have also helped found two different art associations here in Denmark and have been chairman of both of them."
