Nickname: Nillus
Country: Sweden - Role: Artist

Painting is a need. I have used painting since I was young and over time have tried to find my own way of expressing myself. I have gone from oil to watercolor, mostly by chance because the oil painting was harder to bring on trips. Now I use both watercolor and acrylic/oil and find it challenging to practice all disciplines.

I get the most inspiration from nature, the one around us that can enchant in different ways at different seasons and different times of the day. By the sea, by the mountains, by the open landscape... Both what is close and further away. But even the city can be beautiful in different lights and at different times. Capturing a mood and trying to simplify and capture denominations has become my challenge. Similarly, to strive for contrasts and denominations. Recently, I have also explored abstract painting. Something that feels like a natural development.

 




The red field, 56 x 38 cm



My boots, 19 x 28 cm



A view from my window where i lived 30 years of my life in Uppland, Sweden.



This is the field outside my window but this time it is sprintime and the field is flooded by water, you can call it waterlogged.



I like mountains and this painting is inspired of a trip to Austria some years ago .when I hiked in the mountains and the mists were dense over the peaks.
