Danish Artist

Rich. Dethlefsen is an autodidact Danish artist. He has painted most of his life and works at the moment with acrylic on canvas. Over the years he has also made sculptures, digital art and photos.
His art-world is not easy to describe in words, he therefore does it with artworks. It is a combination of many factors put into his special kind of brain, that only he can refer to in his kind of art. But as he usually says: “listen to your eyes and make your own decision”.
He has, among other, exhibited in USA, South Korea, Russia, Romania and many places in Denmark, as you can see in his CV.

Art is an international language and he loves it.
