 orn
and raised in Sweden, I received my training in the fine arts
at the Gerlesborg School in Stockholm. After participating in
several juried exhibits at the National Museum of Art and elsewhere,
I had two individual shows in Stockholm.
I came to Florida in 1987, exhibited my art
here and won several awards. Until recently member of Boca Museum's
Professional Artist Guild and international affiliate member
of American Pen Women. From 1998 to 2000
studies in computer graphics at Broward Community College and
MacFatter Technical Center in Davie, Florida.
Due to my schooling in the fine arts, as
well as in computer graphics, I am able to work in both traditional
and digital media. The skills at drawing people and animals learned
in art school proved invaluable as I developed my style in Adobe
Photoshop, Illustrator, QuarkXpress and PageMill (Web design).
I use a MacIntosh platform and have all the necessary equipment
to work out of my home.
I have also developed other valuable areas
of expertise complementary to my design skills: a B.A. degree
from Stockholm University (English, French and Art) led to travels
in Europe and assignments as a language teacher in the United
States. A certificate in Legal Assistance
from Florida Atlantic University led to a career in the legal
field.
A few years ago I joined a literary club,
since I am also interested in creative writing.
