EKVALL
My name is Thomas Ekvall. I am a painter and illustrator, active in Gothenburg. My main means of expression is oil painting.
In parallel with my own creation, I have worked as a teacher in fine Art, mainly painting and drawing, for many years.
​
I have to paint, it's about strong visual impressions, memories of landscapes and human figures. Painting is for me a compulsion, it is unease - and desire! Painting is short moments of happiness.

Paintings by Tomas Ekvall / Thomas Ekvall
"Thomas Ekvall's paintings grow over a long period of time, with many overpaintings, in many layers.
His paintings therefore often have both a strong pastoral expression and a strange depth effect in the vibrating color spots of light, which can bring to mind the impressionists of older times."
