My name is Torhild Frøydis Eid. I am born i 1961 in Kristiansand, currently living in Son in the south-eastern part of Norway.
I used to work as a navy officer, yet the service was getting increasingly demanding, I chose to leave.
My inner voice urged me to explore and process things. As a result, I turned to painting and mindfullness.
I am a very passionate painter, and I love to experiment with colors, textures and techneques.
I attended my first painting course in winter 2017-8. Currently I am following two online courses, and this autumn I have also attended an art class with a well known Norwegian painter.
I always aim at creating high-quality artworks and improving my skills, especially in acrylic abstract painting
and in mixed media techniques.
The nature, the sea, the sky, the Light and the music are my sources of inspirations.
In my paintings I seek to transfer my inner sensations to the canvas.
While the music is playing - I surrender -and I let the brush intuitively play over the canvas - this especially when it comes to abtact paintings. The result is often unique and very unexpected!
My aim for my painting is to awake and to remind the observer of all the beauty in life - as well as offer moments
of joy and moments just- to breath!
