The paintings of Sigmund Aarseth capture beautifully the many seasons and moods of Norway. Sigmund Aarseth: Norway Painted in Light and Color takes you on a journey through the mountains and the valleys painted with lush strokes of color and light. Sigmund Aarseth is one of Norway?s premier contemporary artists. He embraces the legacy and tradition of his Norwegian forefathers in art. Sigmund develops his own unique and personal style that transforms everyday and often commonplace objects, places and points in time to brilliant, bold alla prima (all at once) brush strokes and a dynamic color palette. His work expresses the heart and soul of the natural world in Norway. Color, shape, texture and light are transformed and modified through his art to portray his Norway, his place, his spirit, and the art spirit of the land and people – Norwegian poetry in color and light. New off the press in September 2008, the 236-page, full-colored, hard-cover 8.5 x 11 inch book includes 250 color reproductions.
