All about energy

I made the base for this painting a long time ago. My first idea was to paint something very light and so the light blue and silver. But like with so many other my paintings, things didn't go like planned. I just didn't get the real inspiration for something light. This is what I ended up with. It's called "Energy!" and it's 40cm X 40cm.
My ufos are different in shape this time and that's because I got to see one of the so called Futuro houses and that inspired me to use them.

White and pink

I may have gone a little overboard with details this time. I really liked the idea of the TV-heads hanging from the tree and ufos appearing. The original idea was to have a white or golden tree with pink background and colorful ufos, but the plan changed while working on it. The painting is called "The Drop" (40cm X 60cm).

The one looking

I have been very busy lately doing other things, so I haven't had time to paint. But after recurring inquiries of whether I'm going to post something new anytime soon, I decided that it is time to please my few fans. I have a couple of paintings in the making, so maybe I'll get to post more than this one before the summer is over. This painting is called "The Big Boss Man" (40cm x 40cm). Again bad lighting, flash and my favorite gold paint makes things a little tricky. With this one I went through some olympic ideas, brain matter and ended up with this. It's a mixture of TV-head, ufo and fuzzy elements.

Golden tree plus colour

Here is a big planet tree painting "Tree of Life". I left it scruffy looking on purpose and selected a picture with emphasis on the gold. There are no ufos or TV-heads. The other one is a colourful "First of May" painting (50cm x 50cm).

Something traditional


Here is something more traditional Bad Painter style. Just plain ufos and even without the windows. I have had a few ideas with a Texas theme for some time now, because I like the combination of heat, sand and some cactuses, with ufos of course. This is not either of those ideas, but it has a kind of Texas theme. I named the painting "Headed for Marfa" (30 cm x 30 cm). Marfa is located in Texas and is known for it's strange lights that has been seen there since the 1950's.

Summer and yellow


My idea was to make a light coloured painting by using mainly grey, white and beige and lots of TV-heads. The result is this. I don't even like yellow and I still keep on using it in some form quite often. I don't know why, maybe the summer heat is making me select sunny colours.

The painting is 80 cm X 50 cm sizewise and it's called "Gran Turismo - The Golden Years". It looks a bit like the earlier one with the pyramides.

Biggest TV-head ever



It's bigger and whiter than ever.
This is my biggest TV-head so far. Maybe the contrast between the white and the rest is too much, I don't know. The picture looks WAY TOO dark compared with the real thing, because the photo was taken during a bad light. Sorry about that.

It's called "Gran Turismo: Space Mangroves". It might be one of my new Gran Turismo-series, (if there will be a series called like that). The size is on the bigger scale (60 cm X 80 cm).

I made the background for this one months ago. It was just bright red with something boring in the middle. I don't even remember what the first thought was all about. Then today I decided to paint something and I was too lazy to start a brand new painting so I ended up continuing with this one. I used a plastic glove at first and then continued with the paint brushes. I don't know if the dripping effect is too artsy but I managed to make it without greating a huge mess so I'm happy about it.
