Information/Announcments
Welcome! I grew up in a small community by Norrköping, Östergötland, Sweden. This community has given me many pleasant memories and it is where I experienced my first love for art. Today I create art in oil, acrylate, aqua-rel, pencil and pastels. A true delight, for me, is when I paint portrait’s of people. I enjoy the defiance and the challenge in capturing the character of the face. For me, as the artist, it is a pure joy to recognize and put to canvas that something special in the character of my sitter. When painting, my goal, while using the proven traditional technique, is to have the painting illuminate life. I also enjoy painting landscapes, animal portraits and still life's. If you wish to commission a portrait or you have a special photo, that you think would make a beautiful painting, contact me.

Membership: A Stroke of Genius The finest selection of traditional portrait and sculptors I have painted since childhood. My first painting was created on my parents´ kitchen wall, an early Sunday morning with a lipstick as pencil. Over the years I have worked in oil, acrylic, watercolour, black lead and pastels. Portrait is my favourite to paint. It’s a sort of defiance to capture the face. To find the special character and soul. My centre goal when I paint is to give my paintings a realistic appearance with a special atmosphere. In the portraits I want to give a realistic, lively face. I paint portrait, landscapes, animals or any object that I’m ordered to do. ”To learn to draw is a question about how to learn to see - to see right - and that means appreciable more than to just look with the eyes."
