Tales of Winter 2

This stunning abstract seascape painting captivates with its tranquil hues and fluid shapes, evoking a sense of serenity and calmness. The piece blends various shades of blue, turquoise, and soft white, creating an ethereal quality reminiscent of gentle waves lapping against a distant shore. The smooth brushstrokes and subtle gradients suggest a peaceful sea under a soft sky, with rolling hills or waves in the background, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the soothing atmosphere it imparts. The layers of color and soft contours provide depth and movement, allowing for multiple interpretations and emotional responses.
This painting would be perfect for a calm and airy living space, such as a coastal home, a minimalist office, or a serene bedroom. Its soothing color palette can enhance relaxation and tranquility in any room, making it ideal for creating a peaceful retreat. Position it above a light-toned sofa or bed for a cohesive look, or in a hallway to add a touch of elegance and calmness to the transition spaces in the home.

The light is special when the land is covered in snow. In the middle of the dark season everything changes when the snow arrives and blanket every surface, the world lightens up and it’s like the earth itself becomes the source of light. The landscape is familiar but feels new and pristine, the fragrance is gone and all is filled with stillness. Like a pause and a beautiful interlude. Kristin is drawn to untouched nature, often using abstract landscapes to express moods and emotions, it is not site specific landscapes but more the essence of an experience expressed via a landscape. Kristin lives at the West coast of Norway and this closeness to the sea and fjords are always present in her artworks. I base my artwork on memories of places and experiences that is reinterpreted and reinvented through colour. The abstraction brings forth the essence and express specific moods and emotions of the experience, elevating the subject from place to atmosphere. I create my artworks in soft pastel that allows for exceptional degrees of intensity and fluidity and opens up for lyrical interpretations and make my compositions vibrate with character as it comes to life. It has a delicate surface and needs the protection of glass.
