About the Item
"Anticipation" is a realist oil on linen painting. It depicts three men sitting on a dock, the still water and two boats behind them. A large white net is shared between the three of them, resting on their laps as they prepare the net to fish. The center figure, donned in a yellow raincoat, his white beard and stern expression facing one of the men, holds a pair of pliers and a thin white string, pliers gesturing towards the sky, as he repairs holes in their net. The closest man looks up from under the brim of his hat, his long pipe burning a bright orange ember. The farthest man, his back turned to the viewer and his men, wears a blue hat, and looks out at the water beyond the dock with a pensive profile. Two seagulls fly just behind them in the top right of the painting, and another perches on a post, its talons just visible.

"I was born in Narvik, Norway in 1998 and was raised living part time in the north of Norway and part time in the tropical climate of Anna Maria Island, Florida. At the age of 11 I started painting after my uncle introduced me to some art in a surfing magazine. At the age of 19 I moved to Florence, Italy to study classical art for 6 years. Now I am based out of Florence and I make art for a living.
Growing up my grandfather would tell me incredible stories; Viking sagas, world history, stories of his trips into the mountains and
across the world. He was an inspirational storyteller. I believe he instilled in me a deep passion to tell my own stories, to go out into the world and search for them on my own. What for him was oral story telling is for me visual story telling. Therefore, my mission as an artist is to let my brushes guide me to discovering my own language. With paint and some pencils, I wish to explore different cultures, philosophy, the past, and my relationship to it all. I tend to speak quite monotone but color and brushstrokes let me tell a more vibrant story."
