Danish Painter in Two Countries "My works must have a feel of their own and a strong message. If the image doesn’t talk to me, I scrap it. I lay out a certain landscape or figure on the canvas — a day later I suddenly see shapes talking to me, and I take it from there. I let the image decide what to do next while I am working. I seldom have a final goal in mind. My subconscious leads the way. I paint what I saw, not what I see.” — Henrik Swane Liisberg New Work
