Biography
Erik Thor Sandberg (b. 1975, Quantico, VA) lives and works in Washington, D.C. Sandberg is known for his masterful oil paintings of the human figure and landscape. Creating inventive imagery ranging from panoramic to intimate, Sandberg pushes the skillful illusionism of master painting to the contemporary edge of Magic Realism.
His work has been exhibited at public and private venues internationally, including the Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore, MD; American University Museum at the Katzen Arts Center, Washington, D.C.; Montserrat College of Art, Beverly, MA; and Baker Museum, Naples, FL. Sandberg’s paintings are also included in numerous international private collections.
