The Danish artist Michael Ahlefeldt (born in 1965) draws and paints with true artistic passion, presenting delightful reflections on life using a vivid, abstract idiom, often choosing large canvases as the outlet for his expression.

The approach to colour in his acrylic works can be both dark and joyful – switching back and forth between black, dark blue and olive green, and blue-tinged white, intense red and sunflower yellow – and his brush strokes are dynamic and insistent.
