As an artist, I am deeply inspired by the natural world, the rhythm of music, and the grace of movement. I find beauty in simplicity, in moments of honest connection, and in living an authentic life that flows straight from the heart. Through my work, I seek to offer more than just visual expression—I aim to create art that instills hope, brings peace, and makes people feel truly seen and understood. My art is a reflection of life's raw beauty, created with the intention of touching the soul and reminding us of the profound connection we all share. 

My creative process is intuitive and organic. I never start with a predetermined idea of what I will paint. Instead, I begin with a few colors that resonate with me in the moment, letting them guide the initial forms and shapes. At first, my focus is purely on discovering beauty, free from any specific motive. As I spend more time with the painting, I step back to observe what has emerged. Gradually, I start to recognize patterns, emotions, or themes, and from there, I shape and reinforce the essence of the piece—revealing what it is truly about.

I've always been creative, with a deep love for art, crafts, and music from a young age. Over the years, I explored various forms of creativity, and for a time, music was my main outlet. But in 2017, after attending art school, painting became my true passion. My first solo show was in 2017 at Lysekils Konsthall, a final project for my art studies. The unexpected success of that show was a turning point for me, convincing me that painting was something I truly wanted to pursue and make a big part of my life.

Since then, I've had the opportunity to show my art in and around Uddevalla, as well as in Gothenburg and Stockholm. For several years, painting was a beloved hobby while I worked as a teacher and when I stayed at home caring for my children. However, I now feel a strong pull to make art my full-time focus. If you connect with my work, I'd love for you to follow me on Instagram, engage with my art by liking, commenting, and sharing—it's through this support that I can find more people who resonate with what I create! 

I'm so glad you've found your way here, and I truly hope my art resonates with you. If you want to contact me about my art you can message me on Instagram or reach out via email. I'd love to hear from you and share this journey together.
