With my pallet, knives and brushes I want to create a dreaming perspective of our time and life. I am inspired by the interaction between nature and man-made things in combination with time and social trends. The motifs, elements and expression of my artwork is to be looked at as a kind of snapshot of our time in a greater context, and I often play a little with time and places. In this way the viewer gets a possibility to make her own story of what is seen.

I spite of the motifs small or big drama my intention is to create a feeling of peace and serenity, and to give the viewer a pause for thought and wondering. The favorite motives and objects are trees and man-made buildings, but I also love to focus on details from nature and to work with people’s feelings in portraits.

My painting technique is inspired by the old renaissance painters, transferred in to modern time. I use several layers of paint (acrylic or oil) on canvas or paper, to make a sense of texture. My painting style can be described as naturalistic with a surreal touch.
