My first trip to Spitsbergen was in February 2003. I came to Longyearbyen to work for 6 weeks at the guest studio at Gallery Spitsbergen. I came back several times during that year before I settled here permanently in the summer of 2004. In my workshop by Gallery Svalbard I work with oil, watercolour and chinese ink to catch the midnight sun and the polar night.

Recently I have also been developing my interest in photography which has resulted in the dvd "A Storm of Silence" More about the dvd.

Welcome to this presentation where I will show the results of my work and a little of my inspiration here at 78° north.
