For the Ladies in black sweaters and pastels, my main focus was to explore their facial expressions. I wanted them to communicate with the viewer through their gaze. The Ladies in black sweaters are made in oil pastel and the two pastel Ladies are made in acrylic on canvas.

I started to paint a couple of years ago but it wasn't until quite recently I found my direction during a sick leave due to stress. After having the feeling that I'm never good enough, as almost all women do, I wanted to challenge the norm and the way we perceive the female body, but I also wanted to reinforce the feeling that I was good enough. I started to paint different bodies and ladies and then I saw different lines and curves as truly beautiful instead of seeing what the ideal is saying to us women. I mainly paint with oil pastels and acrylics. I get inspired by women that believes in them self, women that dare to take place and challenge the ideals and norms. I think there is a lot of female artists throughout history that deserves their rightful place. Some of my favourites are Helene Schjerbeck, Vanessa Bell, Sonia Delaunay, Sigrid Hjertén and Lena Cronqvist.
