Hello, I'm Bjarne Kyed

I have been painting and doing different kinds of art for many years. The different kinds of art include oil/acrylic paintings, lithography and also stone, iron and foam sculpturing.

Over the years, different themes have been experimented with, but I am fascinated by people and I am more fond of big cities far more than nature.

My biggest inspiration has been observing people in different situations. When I was the editor-in-chief for an investment magazine, I was inspired by the stockbrokers.

When I was chief for

the designers at Shows &

Events at LEGO I was

inspired by the joy of

children’s play with the

creative bricks.

These days I am addicted

to “The Good Life”. So

things, which bring a

smile to my face while observing them or thinking of them, will sooner or later find their way to the canvas. With this I hope to bring happiness to other people.

Events

Some years ago I started an artist union with a few other people and we ended up being about 30 members. The biggest event with that group was making a painting of 175 meters in 24 hours, where the newspapers and TV presented it, and the radio followed our progress every 2 hours to see if we could do it in time. 

In another exhibition the opening speech was made by a very famous Danish Actor.

Exhibitions and Sales

I have made a lot of exhibitions and sales in Denmark and Japan through a Scandinavian Art Gallery in Tokyo over the years, and through my network I have sold some paintings to the USA and Canada.

Lately I have been exhibiting through galleries in Hamburg, Germany and London, England.
