ARTIST STATEMENT

I like painting and I like old folk tunes. My kurbits paintings are like an old folk ballad. They tell a good story, and the rhythms and colors are uncomplicated and somehow familiar. I find inspiration in the Nordic folk arts, specifically from the "kurbits” or “dalmålnings,” found in central and southern Sweden in the early to mid 1800’s. My paintings incorporate icons and themes of life, love, depression, joy, poetry, and family. My work is commissioned and collected by enthusiasts in North America and internationally.
