Born in 1957
Residing in Trollhättan, Sweden
My greatest passion has always been the creative arts. Throughout my life it has inspired and developed me into the artist and human being that I am today.
I am always striving to convey works that evoke memories and contemplation in the viewer. Light and shadows are an important part of my stylistic approach and my main techniques are oil (mainly knife work), watercolour, pastel and pencil sketching.
Outside of the arts, I have worked as a professional cartographer and attained a masters degree in social studies. I have also received art education in Greensboro, NC (USA) and decor/trompe l'œil (illusion painting) in Sweden.
I am an active member in several art associations and are often part of their collective exhibitions but my main focus lies on solo exhibitions.
