Danish artist, Nina Sten-Knudsen’s paintings succeed in representing the complexity of the landscape using multiple viewpoints. Her current series of powerful oil paintings reference images of war and rebirth in a sensitive and emotional way.
A graduate of The Royal Danish Academy of Art in Copenhagen, Denmark, Nina is a winner of the Reinvald Blix Award and the Niels Wessel Bagge Award. Her epic, painterly landscapes have made her one of Denmark’s most widely respected painters.
