Roy Andreas Dahl was born in Langevåg, on the West Coast of Norway, on February 12, 1958. He has his artistic education within graphic design and studies with Tore Bjørn Skjølsvik for in-depth studies of painting.

Having grown up on Norway’s beautiful west coast with its rough weather and quick change of light has been a great contributor to Dahl’s work as a painter. The artist is also prone to using people in his expression on canvas, capturing moments in busy, often melancholy lives.

Gallery Manager Mr. Øistein Palm from Dahl’s exhibit in Oslo last October says “this is an exiting exhibit. Dahl has taken away details in the motives and has a freer stroke and larger surfaces” and continues; “Dahl is very good in body language as he describes cafèscenes and people in the pulsating city lives”.

Roy Andreas Dahl works with the impressionists free brush, yet an abstract figurative expression based on respect for the motives volume, color and form.

“As a painter and person I work after my changeable moods and impulses, thus my work must be seen in the light of this”, says Dahl, who believes that people have several strings to tune on their lives path.
