Artist Torunn Urnes Meyer

Hey, there!

I'm Torunn, a Norwegian artist and illustrator based in Bergen. I create layered, light-filled artworks that capture movement, energy, and the beauty of nature. Through acrylics, watercolor, and collage, I explore depth and emotion—bringing stories to life on canvas.

My creative process.

Using acrylics, watercolor, and collage, I build layers of color and light, letting the painting evolve organically.

I refine the composition, bringing harmony and energy to the final piece—each artwork telling a story beyond the surface.

And voila — a new painting sees the light of day!

Take a look at my portfolio!

I paint to explore light, depth, and movement—layer by layer, bringing colors to life and capturing the beauty of creation.
