I was born 1948 in Hanko, Finland. As long as I can remember I have been drawing, painting and writing poetry. I want my writing to touch, fascinate, comfort and at the same time be an alarm to make people react against unfairness and cruelty, which has become more and more common these days.

The world we live in today has become so hard and cold. People suffer more and more. If we try to forgive and understand each other I believe that even the biggest wall starts to crumble and crack.

I paint in watercolour and acrylic. I draw portraits on orders. Furthermore I paint flowers, animals, buildings, still lifes. Nowadays I mainly paint pharaonic art both on papyri and watercolour paper and even on T-shirts.

During the years 1988-1994 studied portrait painting on the Adult Educational Association Vuxenskolan in Stockholm, Sweden.

I am a member of the Swedish Artist Society.

Since 1994, I have participated in more than fifty national and international exhibitions, mainly with my Pharaonic art. The last show I attended was the 2007 Biennale in Florence, Italy.
