About

Even Hansen (b. 2006, Sola, Norway) is a contemporary painter based in his hometown of Sola. His work explores expressive realism, blending realism with imagination. Characterized by vibrant color palettes, and bold brushwork.

Hansen’s process involves using large brushes and thick layers of paint to build up texture and depth. His collections often explore specific places or ideas, with titles such as “Rome” and” Italy” while others like “Green Grass” aim to capture a feeling or mood.

When deciding on new concepts, Hansen follows what captures his imagination. This might be a painting he’s seen, a visual idea he wants to explore, or simply a concept he feels compelled to turn into a series.
