Background
I hold a Master’s degree in Fine Arts from the Uniarts Helsinki’s Academy of Fine Arts, a Bachelor’s degree in Media from a University of Applied Sciences, as well as a vocational teacher qualification. I have worked extensively in the creative field as an artist, entrepreneur, and teacher. Through these roles, I have gained broad experience in both artistic practice and the practical aspects of working in the creative industries.
Approach
I often begin my work with hand-drawn sketches and paintings, which I then digitize and refine into the final visual expression. My images emphasize the rhythms of nature, abundant details, and organic, growing forms. My creative process is grounded in observing the natural world.
Goal
I rely on intuition, curious exploration, and bold experimentation, aiming for a beautiful and emotionally resonant visual language. My goal is to combine aesthetics and meaning in a way that stays in the viewer’s mind.
Values
In my work, observation, thinking, and making are intertwined. I value carefulness, openness, and presence. I believe that pausing to appreciate something good creates connections, sparks insights, and leaves lasting impressions. Positivity guides me both in my creative practice and in life.
