Fashion and Textile Designer, Visual Artist,
Helsinki, Finland.
I am a professional fashion designer with a long career in the garment and textile sector.
I studied fashion designing in Paris at Esmod, the oldest design school in France, and my career has now lasted over 3 decades.
In addition to design I'm constantly studying different techniques of making art, painting and drawing my own imaginative and colourful world, bringing up the things that adults do not always see, healthy values, hope, love and joy.
I use many techniques in my work such as acrylic and oil painting, watercolours, charcoal, ink, mixed media collages, ceramics, crafts, fabrics, photography and of course digital design.
Nature and children are important in my life and I bring to my art the well-being, good mood and wisdom I have learned from them, that is the joy of life. Art is both my escape and refuge and also the resource in the storms of the world and life.
