I have always loved colours and as a child I used to pick wild flowers and arrange them. Later photography became my passion and I discovered an instinct for motives, light and shade and contrast – and how I could use them to express so much more.
It was to my surprise when I began to paint. During a cup of coffee I suddenly had to buy canvasses, brushes and colours and by nightfall I had created my first painting.
I have taught myself everything I know. I am curious and follow my intuition. I work with acrylic on canvas. I work with bright, intense, warm nuances that suit the way I paint, which is abstract modern impressionism.
My biggest inspiration is nature. It gives me a deep feeling of peace and have always been fascinated by the nature. It possesses an amazing ability to touch and to comfort – pure happiness. Nature always finds a way…
I have travelled a lot in Rome, along the Danish shores of the North Sea and in beautiful, wonderful Yorkshire! I use emotions of these places in my art.
I had an accident some years ago (I am fine now), and on that date two years later – I began to paint. To me it is a reminder that something special can blossom in the most unexpected places and beautiful things can happen.
I hope people find happiness and peace in my paintings – this is how I feel when I paint.
