Just one painting that represents you as a person ...

The other day a journalist asked me a really difficult question which I couldn't answer right away:

- If you have to choose one, just one painting that represents you as a person, as an artist, a painting with your typical style, technique and colors, which one is it?

After thinking for a couple of days … I replied:

- It must be “Crystallized joy” 💙

Fun painting assignment - Georg H. Monrad-Krohn Art Studi

Most of the time, I paint abstract paintings, but in between I take on assignments to paint portraits, a family, dogs or a given landscape. This oil painting should be a surprise gift and I got a photo to paint after - and otherwise completely free hands. The client came to my studio and we had a long and good chat about what he wanted with the painting. It became a very fun mission! Here is the result: In Norwegian: Stort sett maler jeg abstrakte malerier, men inn i mellom tar jeg på meg oppdrag om å male portretter, en familie, hunder eller et gitt landskap. Dette maleriet skulle være en overraskelsesgave og jeg fikk et foto å male etter – og ellers fullstendig frie hender. Oppdragsgiver kom til mitt atelier og vi hadde en lang og god prat om hva vedkommende ønsket med maleriet. Det ble et særdeles morsomt oppdrag! Her er resultatet før oljemaleriet ble montert på blindramme: https://www.georgherman.com/

My Art Studio in Oslo - Georg H. Monrad-Krohn

I simply love my workplace, my Art Studio in Oslo, at Fagerborg! It's located at the center of Oslo, in an old classic large apartmen on the top floor with lots of light and lots of space. I have two rooms where I paint daily, a smaller studio where I paint in the morning where the morning sun comes in, and a big room where I paint on the daytime, evening and nights. There is paint on the floors, walls and ceilings ... In addition, I have several other rooms with large wall surfaces where I show my paintings and art prints, a library with a fireplace, a large dining room, a kitchen and two other rooms. Even at one of the guest toilets, art is exhibited! Visitors love being here, they can be here for hours, just watching, smelling, feeling the whole atmosphere at an authentic studio. I often serve Crémant and Danish pastry to the art experience for those who book a Private Art Viewing in my studio, that makes the mood even better… Link...
