Visual Artist, living and working in Sweden.

I have participated in various Collections of Exhibitions, separate Exhibitions and different constructors Art round in Sweden and in Europe (Collections of Exhibition ) France,Italy, Switzerland,England.

My form of expression is to same extent abstract.

I want to give the viewer the opportunity to enter my paintings as well as provie the opportunity for empathy and reflection.

 I get inspiration from Nature and the envirment, experiences and inner reflecion

give a glimpse of my paintings.
