The Folketing (the Danish Parliament) has decided that over a number of years Denmark must have twice as much forest as it currently has.
The aim is to improve the environment and people's well-being.
In order to market this idea I have made a series of posters for the Danish Ministry of the Environment and Energy. Here 3 of the posters are shown.
 

NEW FOREST - PURER WATER
 
 
 
 

On the poster "NY SKOV - RENERE VAND" - NEW FOREST - PURER WATER I have used a humorous angle, as I have placed a stylized cheerful frog in a drop of water.
The drop of water and the frog symbolize both purer drinking water and purer water in the frog's small ponds, etc.
 

NEW FOREST - MORE LIFE
 
 
 
 

In the motif "NY SKOV - MERE LIV" - NEW FOREST - MORE LIFE with the red deer I have used the same colors, but here I have concentrated upon showing the proudest animal of the Danish forests in a new version.
 

NEW FOREST - MORE WOOD
 
 
 
 

"NY SKOV - MERE TRÆ" - NEW FOREST - MORE WOOD symbolizes the commmercial utilzation of the forest. The wood can be used for something. Here for houses and furniture.
 

On posters in general:
At the request of Dansk Plakatmuseum (Danish Museum of Poster Art) all new posters are sent to the museum where I now have one of the largest collections.
After a French visit to Dansk Plakatmuseum's Cassandra exhibition, I received a letter from Mairie de Paris, Direction des Affaires Culturelles, Thierry Devynck:
I am deeply impressed by the quality of the works which you have created and which Peder Stougaard of Dansk Plakatmuseum in Aarhus showed me. In particular, he showed me a poster which, as far as I remember, was entitled "Landmandsliv - en kunstart". The drawing is at once full of charm and permanence. Would it be possible for Bibiloteque Forney to acquire a collection which is representative of your work? I would really like to include your work in our collections, etc., etc.
A collection was subsequently sent to Paris.

 
 
My way - I am proud of doing it my way.
