Eriksen has a unique approach to his paintings. He likes to build up the painting in stages, starting with a base layer of paint and adding more complex layers of color, texture, and form as the painting develops. His compositions often feature juxtaposing light and dark tones. He enjoys experimenting with different combinations of texture and color, creating intricate patterns and lines to draw the viewer’s eye.

Eriksen’s works explore new methods of expression. He creates thick, textured compositions with strong, saturated hues and intense forms. He can create vibrant and dynamic artwork by working with multiple layers of paint. Each piece explores new possibilities, allowing him to continue pushing boundaries in his creative process.

Ketil Eriksen’s creative process involves working on several paint and mixed media layers. He starts by allowing himself to explore and express himself freely, letting the painting take him on its journey. Next, he uses color, shapes, patterns, and nature to inspire his abstract works.

Although he may experience periods of flow when creating, he acknowledges that the creative process can sometimes become challenging. In these moments, Eriksen allows himself to step away from work, allowing himself time to regroup and reset before returning to the painting.

Eriksen emphasizes that it is essential to stay open and allow yourself to take risks in the creative process. This attitude helps him remain in a state of exploration and progress in his work.

Ketil Eriksen’s artwork is a reflection of his inner universe and emotions. According to the artist, his paintings come from within like a kind of eruption, guided by his emotional moods, thoughts, and impressions.

Eriksen is self-taught and works mainly from inspiration from colors, shapes, patterns, and nature. He aims to create a painting that conveys something unique and personal. “It’s about finding something new in the painting and creating something special,” he says. Ultimately, he hopes to evoke an emotional response in the viewer, to convey something more than just a physical depiction of the world around us.
