ABOUT ME

For me painting is like meditation. In front of the easel I think of nothing, absolutely nothing. The mind is empty. Only the canvas, the paint, the brushes and what's coming out matters. Acrylic is my favourite medium. And big canvases. And bright colors. Occasionally I paint a small landscape in oil. And sometimes I copy a painting I love (and of course always state the original artist on the back of my canvas). I started painting with a group of friends way back in Stockholm, Sweden. Got really hooked during my ten years living in the south of France, where I painted regularly at the Hangar Art Center in Valbonne. Nowadays, back in Sweden, I paint in Gustavsberg in a really creative environment. The old factory building, "Porslinsfabriken", where Sweden's most talented ceramic artists work, since 1825. Best inspiration ever!
