Address: OD30, Ole Deviks vei 30, 0666 Oslo
Floor: first floor
Room number: second room, left (andre rom ,venstre).
The studio is open Saturday 26 April from 12-17
I work with painting, paper collage and drawing, with the main focus on painting.
I work with various forms of “staging”, both probable and improbable,
fiction and reality.
The inspiration comes from films, good stories, books, what I see and my imagination.
Down-to-earth elements and nature are also important sources of inspiration.
I am a painter.
