About

I work professionally as an industrial designer with my small studio here in Stockholm and work with painting when time allows me. I hope to be able to spend more time to develop my painting in the near future.
In the early 2000 I began experimenting with painting, mainly in acrylic and gouache, but also with screen-printing, as a natural development of my design work.
I work works primarily in a purely geometric and non-figurative style where composition, color and perspective are important components in my work. I hope my work will give the viewer a positive feeling and inspire to curiosity.

Inspiration

I have many sources of inspiration; nature, design , architecture, movies, music and more.

1991-1993 Art Center College of Design, La Tour-De-Peilz, Switzerland
1993-1994 Konstfack, Industrial Design, Stockholm, Sweden
1994-1995 Umeå Institute of Industrial design/ Umeå, Sweden. MFA Graduate

Galleri Gamla Staden / Landskrona 2013

At the moment I work mainly in acrylic and gouache , but I will start do some explorative work in oil painting.
I have made a few screen prints in a limited edition, a few which are still available for sale.

I usually do a lot of pre studies in small scale until I know exactly how I want the larger painting to be. I then translate the sketch to canvas or other medium to
create the original. I use a special masking technique to achieve very sharp borders to the color fields on the paintings.
