About
My Name is Emelie Majling and I'm a 37 year old artist. I am based and live in Stockholm Sweden and have a small studio space up in our attic.
For work I'm a digital designer but its when I paint I never need too think or make exuces and I can loose my self in my paintings and colors. The freedom of art is that it have no rules!
I have painted all my life but its now In the past years I feel that I found my self in my art and that it is something I feel proud of to show others.
Painting and my art is my happy place!
I hope you like it!

Inspiration
In my art I often get Inspired by nature and the animal kingdom. I love to paint animals with soulfullness that can see right thru you.
When Im not painting animals I tend to paint mythical women with a mix of creatures that I call Whisp or Yokais.
The are always all around us and represent the things we never cant explain.
I love to play with acrylic textures and vibrant colors to give the paintings more life and depths.
Art Education in High scool.

Acrylic texture
Step 1 is to paint backgrounds with a lots of layers and textures.
Put a lotta effort to make the feeling right and Alive. Here I use brode pallette knife.
Stephen 2 is to get the animals or characters to "grow out" of the backeound texture with many layers of avrylics.
