Artist statement
About my painting
I am a Swedish watercolor artist who primarily paints landscapes and urban environments, with a focus on light, value, and presence.
My paintings often start from my own reference photos from everyday life and my surroundings. I return to seasonal shifts, different times of day, and moments when the light changes the entire experience of a place.
In watercolor I work with simplified values, larger shapes, and varied edges: soft, hard, and lost. I want the image to be clear enough to carry direction, but open enough to leave something elusive behind.
What interests me most is the tension between control and letting go. When water, pigment, time, and decisions are allowed to work together, the subject can become more than a description of a place and instead carry an experience of presence, transience, and connectedness.
In my day-to-day work, I’m a visual communicator at Stockholm School of Entrepreneurship. That background has given me a strong focus on composition, simplification, and visual clarity.
