About

Hi!

I'm a Gothenburg-based artist who creates everything from sculptures and paintings to digital illustrations and animations. My art is inspired by everyday life and I especially love to draw confident, happy women and non-binary figures. I usually portray joy and complexity and everything is made for myself but if they can promote conversation, calm or bring a smile to their new home, I'm very thankful.

I'm self-taught and work with acrylics, charcoal, aquarelle or digital with Procreate, it depends on my mood. I have taken classes in art history but have my grandmother to thank for my art interest as she was an oil painter.

I live with Christoffer and the cutest furball in the world - Alice, in Gothenburg, Sweden. I love hanging out in the forest and swimming in the lake. All my childhood summers were spent on our boat exploring the coast and we are saving up for getting a boat of our own. I work part-time with this on my own and also at my day job in concert production here in Gothenburg. I'm actually hired by an orchestra company, that wasn't on my bingo card but I'm thriving there.

For you to get to know me you need to know that I have a lot of interests. It’s not all about art over here, as one might think. Video games - Overwatch is a fav. Movies - I love a good period drama. History - I studied to become an archaeologist but when the pandemic hit I took a break, a very long one. Interior and thrifting - I love making our home a cozy space with beautiful stuff. Art and design in all forms is a passion.
