Among Haaland’s latest paintings, inspiration is drawn from the architecture of the Mediterranean and of European cities and the history of sports. When it comes to the city pictures the different building facades are given special attention, often seen as reflections of the windows of the stores. Over the past years he has concentrated on reflections from areas of London.
