- This film shows the making of the oil painting called: "Circus Nights" (oil on canvas), by Tor-Arne Moen. It was painted in March/April 2015 and measures 200x350 cm. The model is Martine Grette.
***
The film was made by the artist himself, and is an "artist in studio" production showing the process of a large oil painting.
The painting depicts a huge lion watching closely as a woman in a green dress is holding a hula hoop, in what seems like an an intent to tame a shoal of fish, swimming in the air through the room.
Although Moen has claimed that "the motif is just an excuse to paint", his paintings leaves the spectator with space to interpret, and are often highly imaginative and with stories to tell.
***
Tor-Arne Moen (1966) is a Norwegian painter, printmaker and author. He lives and works in Notodden (Telemark), Norway. He was educated at the Bergen National Academy of the Arts (1988-94).
The artist is recognizable by his high-powered figurative technique with heavily painted surfaces consisting of coarse and thick brushstrokes made with varying brush widths, in layer upon layer. He uses a mix of oil-paint and egg-oil tempera, an old technique based on an emulsifying binder. Emulsion is a mixture of two substances which initially cannot be mixed, in this case oil and water. The egg is added as the emulsifier, which allows oil and water to mix. The word tempera refers to the actual painting technique and was used by the masters since Medieval times. While the tempera is often applied in thin layers, Moen uses it with oil-paint, and in generous amounts, in order to get the creamy texture, and set the brushstrokes in relief to the canvas.
Moen had his breakthrough with a series of paintings for Hamsun’s collected works in the early 90s and continued with a series of expressively painted motorcycles. Throughout the last 25 years he has worked through a wide range of different approaches to the medium and has gone through most classical, figurative disciplines, with motifs such as portraits, landscapes, urban landscapes, burlesque and imaginative, more or less surreal constellations between animals and human figure. In short, most of what he has found visually interesting.
Moen usually works in series over a topic that can occupy him for several years, before changing his theme and style, seeking new angles into his painterly excavations.
For two periods, from 2004 to 2012 and from 2017 onwards, he has worked with a nostalgic approach to the painting based on old black and white family-album photographs as motive basis and support for the eye. Here, the viewer immediately recognizes the photographic reference to a certain time and a certain type of photography, while experiencing the painterly addition of coats and colors in bold, often expressionist brushstrokes. «In front of his painting», an art critic once said, - «I often get the urge to press my nose against its surface to smell it, and maybe even taste it».
The broad-brushed realism and oily, almost juicy surfaces becomes an important source of distance from the photographic art.
Even though the references and the narrative in these paintings have a retrospective character, the spectator is forced to realize that the images are made in our present time, and seen with the eyes, -and nostalgia of our time.
Tor-Arne Moen is represented by many renowned galleries all over Norway and by RJD Gallery in the USA. His works are acquired by art collectors both nationally and internationally.

Thank you for letting me into your studio....your world is very inspiring!👍❤
You sir are a master at your craft. Absolutely amazing.
Fantastic video. True art in every sense of the expression.
Especially the picture near the chair where they rested is impressive...
Just watched this again love the style art the style of the artist the process , I love Martine she’s gorgeous classy women love to be her what style the studio everything it’s just amazing the painting I wish it was on my wall
Watching your posts is like watching a Federico Fellini movie…. 🙏🎨🇿🇦🙏🎨🇿🇦👏👏👏👏
Wow! What a compliment! 🥰
Bravo, Brava!
Thanks for sharing the creation.
Merci merci,et encore merci, vous êtes grand
Quelle maîtrise ! Magnifique !
I love his style, old school..!!!
the style isnt old school the aesthetics are 50s vintage
@@modestrocker1Never mind, love his old school style anyway..
I really liked the old radio and chairs.😊
Video it self it is an art . It blowed my mind . Amazing as painting 🖼
The only part I can relate to is running upstairs after the model; the rest totally escapes and fascinates me. Thank you.
The rest (the art) 'escapes and fascinates' you? - expressing detachment, dispassion / nonchalance, indifference and keen interest in the work, simultaneously. Lol. That doesn't make sense.
This process of incorporating my many experiences I have in my life collection is the mentoring I'v been yearning for. Finding you here on YT to learn from you has been a grand pleasure for me to close in on oils as I feel best concentrating on.. All the best to you. TorArne🍦
Amazing painting and super creative!
Not only the painting....
Good work.
J adore votre style et votre peinture.🌟
Great piece of Art
Sehr gute MALEREI Sie sind ein wahrer Künstler......
Great painting for sure,,,, drips not sure doesn't make sense,, bewildered
Loved that video class style elegance sophistication and that was just the model , but no the painting the uniquely beautiful the colours style idea magnificent bravo
Wow! Your imagination, drawing skill and observance are awesome!
Indeed, but as to skill and observance, in life we seldom have to give extremely keen skill to what we see because we aren't intending to ever aesthetically recreate those scenes (our mind curates the inner gallery we fill with such experience almost for free) in the same scrupulous detail that an artist needs to approach their end.
lo ame, fantastico ... surrealista.
you're a very good painter, sir
…”Un buen trago y siempre la compañía de una atractiva musa. Hacen la inspiración de una buena obra”…
“El vino - que no falte!” No obstante; el artista nunca toma mientras trabaja, pues le obstruye la concentración. Los modelos…otra historia😉 Atentamente, La Musa😻
A Magnifient feat of artistic achievement---the best video one has seen of 'action' spontaneous creative painting in the studio! And the artist still manages to retain 'sartorial elegance' with his dining suit without a 'spot' of paint---normally an artist is bespattered with paint having gone through this process!
The clothing is normally not that spotless after a few weeks, believe me!😂 I take it the new shirt was for the film, or just a coincidence 😅
Agreed!!!@@gallerigrette3188
incredible!
Beautiful woman and artwork.
Onedefull..art.s..master..work

Fantastisch
Целое увлекательное кино. Супер❤
Love it
Bravo!❤🤜🤛👊👏🏻
I got lucky. I watched a painter bring a sketch to a painting.
Now that's impresive
Интересная кухня художника !
Как из отдельных прямоугольников разных по содержанию собрать композицию связанную , как из отдельных фрагментов сна раскрывающих что-то подсознательное .
Обратили внимание на огромное количество кассет из-под яиц.
He is a great artist..the reason there is little comments,,no understanding of his mind and jealousy..
Not only a great artista and painter but really great at drawning
Magnifique super bravo l'artiste
Very Good...!!!!
Me gustó ❤!
IT'S FANTASTISH TOR֊ARNE. 🤟🇩🇪
Genial
Yes, A very good artist...Please keep up the films! All the other artists are so boring.
Maybe the other artists you mention are not, but it could be the way it’s presented. We do love interesting and entertaining content, don’t we? 🤩🥰
Discrimination is very Offensive! There is no discusión possible about Arts, noone is better than another!
Like watching Lucien Freud…that brushwork…but that’s just me
Maybe not just you? I know for a fact that the artist holds Lucían Freud high, and is utterly inspired by him. I’m sure he would take it as a great compliment❤
How much did that canvas cost? Linen? Coltrane? You seem to fit things together so nice.
Bravo
Very nice.
Bravo! Can you do one of the US Supreme Court, with Alito's head upside-down, and Thomas in a flowing Roman toga? Thanks!
That looks fun
13:36 it would be already great!
bravo
Missed a bit near the door.
Anyone lnow which easel Tor-Arne is using? That thing is huge!
La Naissance du Monde dans l'atelier bravo, je vois que vous aimez les femmes😅
He does like beauty…but as a painter also very much interested in HOW things look (to him I guess), and how he can project it out through paint did you see the one with the chain saw? What I’m trying to say is that it’s not so much the motive itself, but how thing can be perceived and interpreted
er det to forskeligge malerier eller er det et hele? jeg ser ingen relation
Kanskje det er en slags optisk illusjon i det at bakgrunnen er todelt? Figurene i forgrunnen har allikevel en kontakt, hvis du velger å tolke det den veien 🤗
Amigo Tor : Sos Muy Bueno !!!!😂
👍👍
♥♥♥♥♥♥
16:43 hanging with your Bush painting .. so strange.
Lion is gorgeous kissable
Excellent job but we thinking maybe you spend too much on paint. This kind of oil paint is very expensive. You don’t feel the pain when you use so much? 😢
A painting needs paint in order to become what it is. This is his way of working. But of course there are other ways to work, using a lot less paint😃 Moen uses a lot of egg-oil tempera too, especially for big surfaces, which works as an extender too. He mixes oil paint into the tempera, that gives a smooth, silky-like surface, which gives a rich texture as well
I’m sure he can afford it
I need to ask. Why those many eggs?
Thank you.
MISTRZOSTWO👏👏👏
Why the purple first in the holla hoop?
From what I know he usually works from darker colours to the lighter. And work from the elements in front of the perspective, to the further behind. I haven’t really investigated this to be true in all of his paintings ( or what’s recorded of paintings in process), but if you have interest, maybe you can find a consistency?
🤜🤛👊
❤️💚💙🌹👍
возле лестницы прикольный натюрморт висит, с мехом
finished this in one day??
i don't think so. If you notice, he applied glaze last. So the paint must be dry by then. Probably after 2 to 3 weeks.
Certainly not in one day! This has of course been edited to keep the process interesting, because nobody wants to see weeks of work in real time 😅
Blanquino y ocrino pa hacer leonino.😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Kısa film lezzetinde sabah süprizi oldu
CEREAL WITH A FORK???
Y el fondino
I like the entire thing of course, but particularly at the end where artist and life model (no the living one, not the digital images or set objects and her legs arms and face were partially nude) leave the art just be.
Y quiere emmarquino
Nothing here to see.
I hope you traded the seconds you spent on this comment on something worth your while🤗
hugeliete
No one has alizarine in their ears. If this was jazz you'd be fired.
Художник явно не голландец.
you are quite a non-artist painter, I would say
Please elaborate? I didn’t understand this comment :)
