Raised in Södermalm, Stockholm and now lives in Lidingö.

Slightly younger than now, I studied classical arts such as painting, sculpture, graphics, photography, visual communication and art history. Work as a graphic designer took at and and since 15-20 years I am mainly hired for designing digital media. The profession is usually called web designer. I design web and print magazines, company websites, e-commerce and visual identity for companies. 2010-2015 I worked more with management and business development as CEO.

In 2015, I took a long break from the intensive working life in the media industry. In such situations, you get time to look around. I then realized that I longed to return to the creative work of my previous career. Not only did I miss the creativity of web design, I also missed the art.

When I started to show my paintings, it soon became clear that they were very much appreciated. I received requests to purchase the paintings I had done for relaxation and received a few new orders.

For over 20 years as a graphic designer and digital I have maintained my painting in my spare time. Nothing more than that, unfortunately. From September 2016 I continue my career as a freelance designer and thus I get an opportunity to devote more time to art.

With me I have experience in large design projects and an ability to organize creative work. After a long career where I presented and got paid for creative work on a daily basis, I have a strong sense of how my work is perceived. I am used to organizing and structuring the process to reach a high level within budget and timelines. Experiences that reasonably provide charter and guidance in an artist's activity. Skills I probably wouldn't have acquired if I had started my artistic career straight after art school.
