Information about the artist / the group

I have painted since 2016 and started my first course in drawing and painting in adult education Työväenopisto, based on encouragement of a friend. I´m drawn to free abstract expression. Painting and experimenting with acrylic colours suites me fine as they dry quickly. Since 2019 I have participated in Lapinlahti Art School guidance in Helsinki and I will continue that.
How to get forward when something keeps you stuck? - Examining my mind and soul makes me want to bring these sentiments on paper, as paintings, drawings and texts.

Program during Konstrundan

I will present how to use acrylics in monoprinting technique.
I can demonstrate the steps of technical painting work and how the use of random events are a large part of this.
I can discuss the two opposing sides of painting: working with hands and throwing oneself at the mercy of creative flow.
