Thomas Hjelm
I am driven to create art by a keen desire to outwardly express my inner self and imagination through the use of colour and composition. Without doubt I have found that abstract painting is the form of artistic expression that gives the greatest freedom and inspiration.
I was born in Oslo, Norway and for the first few years of my life I lived in Sandvika on the southern coast before coming to the UK in 1985. Then for much of my life I lived in Devon before settling with my family in Cornwall. I have always felt fortunate to live near the sea, and it has further inspired me to explore and create.
I do prefer to paint with oils due to its texture and richness of colour. I tend to paint in portrait orientation, and I produce medium to large size paintings. I always do my best to select quality materials and paints, and I prefer to paint on deep edge canvases.
In particular I am interested in creating art that leaves a thoughtful impact and sense of feeling, simply by the use of evocative colour and imaginative, abstract composition. To date I have exhibited my artwork in local galleries, both in Devon and Cornwall.
I look forward to offering my artwork here on Artmajeur as it is respected and well-established. I am confident that Artmajeur provides the ideal platform to reach those who would appreciate my artwork.
Regards, Thomas
