My paintings are a work in progress that follows my daily life situation. Working upon the daily hurdles that I as mother, wife and artist am going through. There are lot of things to take care of and they suck out my creative energy. It is an on going fight and you only manage if you are stubborn and really want to stay in front of your canvas. I love and need my frustrations, because they continually give me something to work on. In the picture I have collected happenings and memories. They are all jointed in no particular order and united through colours. I have changed the black oilbar that I usually use with a red one. The shift has given a light and summery vibe that contrasts very much to my other moodwise often "heavy" paintings. The series "we are all fighting the same war" is about pre and post Covid. The Covid19 has thrown me back into the period when my children were small. I got the feeling about being a ball, going up and down from one wall to another. The lockdown here in Italy where I am has had a very strong impact on all of us. During lockdown I had a positive period work wise as restrictions often improve creativity. Slightly getting started one begin to understand what really happened. I’m left with a lot of confusion in my head. I’ll use the confusion and the “out of control” feeling to: work freely, less controlled and without thinking to much. Original art work, oil and tempera on canvas. Year 2020 Signed and dated on the front Gallery wrapped and stretched on a 2 cm deep stretcher frame, the edges are painted. Shipped stretched and ready to hang.

Born and raised in Denmark. Since 1998 working and living in Italy. Main inspiration "the human form". Working with the "space" between people. Often working in layers and using the transparency to get depth into my painting. Layers that can be very different but combined through colors.
