I was born in Umeć 1975 and grew up in Skellefteć in the northern part of Sweden. In 1996 I moved to Uppsala to study pharmacy. Alongside my career in this scientific field I've cultivated my old passion of visual art. I work with oil paint, watercolors and pencil drawing in a realistic style and manner. I've studied art history at Uppsala University but has no formal training when it comes to painting and drawing and are completely self-taught. Since 2003 I'm a member of a local artist guild in Uppsala.
