About me

Growing up on a farm in northern Norway didn’t just feel like the end of a one-way street—it also allowed me to embrace boredom and fill it with creativity. If it weren’t for my childhood, I might never have discovered the beauty of sitting, sometimes for hours, drawing, painting, reading, and dreaming, much to my brother's frustration. I guess I was a bit boring.

I wasn’t only inspired by the idyllic atmosphere of a northern Norwegian farm—the scent of sheep shit and dust in the air—but also by the dream of the big world beyond. Believe it or not, I miss it!

In recent years, I have learned more than ever before. Thanks to my biggest supporter and cheerleader, who also happens to be my husband, I have unlocked a new world within myself, experimenting with styles and materials.
