Þegar ég var ungur var grafík listin og sjónvarpið svart og hvítt. Það má auðvitað líta á lit væðinguna sem ákveðna framför, en tjáningin getur þú líka verið beinskeitt í svartlist ég hef verið að vinna prófa að gera grafík sem er í grunnin svart/hvít en svo kom upp í hendurnar á mér tækifæri að fara að vinna í Fablab en það er lasier sem vinnur þá skurðin sem gefur mér tækifæri til að blanda saman ljósmyndum og teikningu. Ég læt hér fylgja með tvær myndir; önnur er af kálfi með Ísland sem skjaldarmerki en stundum finnst manni Íslendingar vera eins og ný fæddir kálfar t.d. þegar kemur að þí að stjórna landinu efnahagslega og hin myndin er draumur um að það fari að vora í málefnum plánettunar. Grafík á Facebook.

When I was young, the graphics art prints and the TV were in black and white. Of course, you can see the color in media as a certain improvement, but you may also like the expression in black and white printing art. I’ve been experimenting doing graphics that are basically black and white, but then I got a chance to work in Fablab it’s a laser that works the wood cut that gives me the opportunity to mix photographs and drawings. In this blog are two of this prints; another is a calf with Iceland as a coat of arms, but sometimes I have the impression Icelanders are like new born calves, for example when it comes to managing our country economically, the other is a dream to save for our planet . Prints on Facebook.
Kálfurinn er góð umgjörð til að lýsa hvernig íslendingar eiga erfitt með að standa á eigin fótum í ýmsum málum. The calf is good to frame how Icelanders find it difficult to stand on their own feet in a variety of cases.
Ég held að við eigum okkur öll draum um að það fari að lagast ástandið á jörðinni. I think we all have the dream that the situation on the planet will be corrected.

Ég prenta í vinnustofu Íslenzk Grafík. I’m printing at the workshop of Íslensk Grafík.Bleiki Pardusinn var hliðarsjálf mitt á ákveðnum tíma á níunda áratugnum. The pink Panther just to be my alter ego á at certain time in the eighties.
Lives and work as an artist in Reykjavik.
Alter ego DADILISTO
I was born in Reykjavik: May 12, 1954. Grow up Kópavogur close to Reykavik, which was mostly built by refugees, who were not allocated land in Reykjavík for political reasons. Good time for children to play in half builded houses, or go to a small shelter and listen to the communist.
When I was 12 y.o. I decided to become a painter and, as my father resisted, it would not turn back.
After I have learnd Carpentry to make my father happy, I went to The school of Arts and Crafts, and ended up learning experimental art and new art media, I could take all the risks, I had lernd very practical profession to be able to make a living. I did not get started with creating so called “New media”, but began do painting with the good old oil colours. I was a part of movement in the eighties called “New Painting”. I then studied in Amsterdam for a year, mostly of graphic printing, but that time was a great gift for me, since I started working as a professional and have done so mostly since 1983.
I’ve been very lucky! I was one of the first to do, so called “New Panting” in Iceland, this promotion drew attention and I started selling my art works and could make a living in a decent life, all the time until the lucky famous “collapse” of the banks in Ieland, but at that time people mostly have to use their money in pay-as-you-go debt created by our economic system in Iceland, probably one of the worst in the world.
After that crash, I have been doing some extra work: teaching, city walk with tourist and so on, I have alsow been having pepole visiting my studio with some home-made food. But also received a grants.gov support for big exhibition in Art museum: Kjarvalsadir in 2011. This period has been nice, always good to get new challenges especially if one manages to take advantage of them. I recently had an exhibition of Mokka Kaffi in Reykjavik hat was successful.
I have been doing Sahajayoga for many years and have volunteered to teach and introduce.
