Antler Held Skyward: One animal, one ridge, two hundred litres
The reindeer is thirty centimetres tall and took four hours to paint. The aurora is everything else.
Sofia Larsson — from the journal
Based in Gotland, Sweden. Works in a style called Nordlys Minimalism: two or three elements maximum, low horizon lines, still water, pale gold and warm winter light, soft atmospheric gradients, radical reduction.
