My name is Atle Berner Andersen and I have been painting since elementary school. When I turned 60 in 2009, after nearly 40 years as an art director and graphic designer, I decided it was time to do something else.

That is why I have opened a web gallery at www.galleriberner.no

The different themes in my paintings are influenced by my professional background and the graphic form and color palette is important to me. I try to aim for simplicity and clarity in the different motives, and I belive most objects have their own charm and identity.

Some of the paintings are made after real life objects and some are made after photos.

If you have any views on my paintings I would be very grateful if you would express them.
