Petter Andreas Jørgensen ARTIST A self-taught painter with a focus on abstract and figurative motifs, Petter uses a combination of acrylic paint and charcoal to create melancholic portraits and landscapes. He currently works as a health secretary at St. Olav’s University Hospital in Trondheim, but hopes to make a living from his art one day. Petter discovered his passion for art about a decade ago. At a time when he was looking for a new hobby to delve into, he came across painting, and it soon became a serious passion. Despite having no formal art education, he has since been able to make a name for himself in the industry. Today, his work is featured in exhibitions around Trondheim, but the truth is he never planned on becoming a painter.
