My imagination weaves its way through the Aurora Borealis sky. Dark green forests of pine trees inhabit my hands & the scent of birch rises from my paper. Never will I forget the familiar echoes of loons singing on light midsummer nights by the lake.
I have a passion for arts – drawing, painting, sculpture, installations. I colour the clouds of my imagination and draw the line of my life experiences.
Studied and graduated Visual Arts and Sculpture at Emerson College, Forest Row, England.
Works and lives in Helsinki and Lapua, Finland.
