?The bucket is still on the rope ladder? by Per Nylén
? "An acquaintance, Olle Ljungström (now deceased musician, editor's note), once said, 'Per, your paintings are like a 3-minute film', and that's kind of how I see them," says artist Per Nylén. "You don't know what the people look like, but there's always some crazy activity going on inside the houses. Or just the thought of cycling on a rope ladder to the neighbour's house is dizzying. And what they do with the ladders and buckets, I have no idea. This is exactly what you experience in the artwork The bucket is still on the rope ladder.

Per's paintings are often enigmatic, evocative and imaginative houses. In most cases, he paints on an MDF board and carves the frame himself. He paints really large paintings on canvas. Mostly with acrylic paint and felt-tip pen, like this one, but sometimes he also uses oil pastels. The palette is dominated by blue and orange tones.
? In recent years I have used an iPad to create, says Per. "It's something completely different from working with acrylic paint, but it's so much fun. It usually takes longer to finish than a physical painting, strange but great fun!
