Norwegian figurative painter Kristen Vestgard was born in 1976. In childhood she had dreamed of becoming a fashion designer. And the traces of her dream live in her paintings – slim women with their ephemeral appearance, as well as the mystic atmosphere in which they exist. Kristen Vestgard got her BA in Fine Art studying painting and drawing in Nordfjord, Oslo and Falmouth College in the United Kingdom. She successfully exhibited her paintings in art galleries in London and Norway. The artist as if has left a space for us to interpret the imaginative world of her paintings. In addition, her figures are always female, and they hide their inner world, emotions, thoughts and atmospheres. Besides, Kristen Vestgard compares them to “a diary with no words“. Kristen Vestgard lives with her family in a traditional wooden house in Norway. She is a member of union of Norwegian artists.
