I was born in Norway and graduated in teaching in 1977. Besides teaching, I also have a background in publishing in the UK. I also pracise and teach meditation and wrote a book, The Inner Temple in 1998,( New Vision publshing) I am also a qualified aromatherapist and Spinal Touch Therapist and had a practise in Norway. Quite by chance, through a sustained period of illness, I found I could paint.... And have been painting ever since. Nature inspires my vision and I work in both watercolour and oils.I have had my work published by Wynstones Press in cards and the White Eagle Publishing and have illustrated the covers of five books, including 2 for O books
