Painting has been a hobby of mine since my early teens and I find enjoyment above all in the stories that emerge when I paint.

I usually create without a clear plan, where I let intuition and passion guide me to find motifs on the canvas. The motifs come to life, they take shape and different directions. In my paintings you can often see both graphic elements, darkness and humor, as well as animals which always seem to appear. My penchant for painting faces and animals probably comes from the fact that for several years in my early painting I mostly painted portraits. After a high school education with an artistic orientation, I took some watercolor classes in my early adult years. For many years I then painted mostly in watercolor. In 2019 there was a big turn in my painting, when I discovered a more intuitive painting method. Today I primarily paint in acrylic, and like to supplement my paintings with other materials such as crayons, thread and marker pens. I get my inspiration from my surroundings, often focusing on shapes and patterns, nature, the animal kingdom and crafts.

In the menu Paintings, I have published some of my later paintings based on acrylic, as well as some previous works in primarily watercolor under the submenu Earlier work.
