I was born in Norway, north of the Polar Circle and have discovered that the contrasts of this stunning and beautiful environment have influenced my work more than I realise. My memories of the dark blue sparkling winters and the light pastel coloured summers have created a stong foundation in my creativity.

When I moved to the United Kingdom a contrasting inspiration was added to my work: the busy environment of the big cities. My recent work is therfore inspired by the effects that the urban environment has upon me. The  high level of energy and the heart beat of the busy streets fascinates me as well as the contrast between the shiny surfaces of the skyscrapers and the scribbling or grafitti on the walls of tatty warehouses. Integrated in my work is also an interpretation of human communication using signs such as handwriting.
