about

I think art is a great way to tell stories, but it's the viewers mission to read it. That way it's easy to connect with art when you don't force people to "understand" it. My work is devided between having meaningful background stories and just doing because I simply felt like experimenting. Loving the progress from the beginning all the way to the finished piece is important to me and I like the freedom of changing plans as I work - letting the outcome be a surprise.
I prefer to work with pencils and ballpoint pens.

I love trying out different materials such as fabrics and papers. Working on a new medium can be a challenge but an adventure. I'd like to keep and show a mindset of the ability to draw "with anything on anything".
Being a country mouse origin I love and admire nature. There's inspiration everywhere we look at. Especially clouds and different landscapes inspire my work at the moment.
