DANNY LARSEN<br />

1981 NORWAY ACRYLIC ON CANVAS<br />

Danny Larsen’s paintings emulate the dark beauty and historic landscapes of Scandinavia. Prior to becoming a full-time artist, Larsen had an extensive career as<br />

a professional snowboarder. As Larsen’s focus shifted from snowboarding to visual art, his early illustrative style became more embedded in natural landscapes<br />

and Norwegian folklore. His exquisitely detailed penmanship depicts dark and atmospheric scenes of rural Norway, evoking a spiritual, ghostly tranquility.<br />

Larsen has exhibited internationally in Paris, London and Austria. He also has a close partnership with the Michelin-starred restaurant Maaemo in Oslo and has<br />

been commissioned to produce paintings and various designs for the establishment.<br />
