How it all began...

It began in 1993 with an exhibition of Horst Janssens 2000 drawings and prints in Deichtor Halle in Hamburg, then I knew what to become.

In the works...

I am a grafik artist gone canvas, - I schratch in the semidried oil so that the underlying paint is making the lines in the picture. I treat my canvas as I would prepare a piece of cupper before etching it.

Down the road...

I have been working on combining the stagearts with drawing/painting. So far I have set up nightdrawings, where actors, dancers and musicians pose on stage, and do still-acting, and the audience is illustrators, artists of any kind.
I have also participatet in a rolling theatre moving through the streets. In Denmark, Sardinia and Ireland,(Belfast) together with the group Theatre en Vol from Sardinia, and Belfast Community Cirkus.

About me in general...

I am a mother of 4, live together with a cirkusartist in a small community on the countryside in Denmark. I live from my paintings and of Kitchenduty on a School when I need more money than the paintings can pay for.
I love to travel, set up projects of art combining arts of all kinds.

if you could collaborate with/meet any artist, past or present, who would it be?

??!! Any kind with skills, good humor and a good grafik eye.
