INSPIRATION

My art is born in nature. I am currently most inspired by water—the sea, rivers, and lakes. You can also find rocks, greenery, and glimpses of the sky in my paintings.

I mostly paint outdoors in nature or in my studio by the sea at Põhjala Tehas in Tallinn.

My art journey
started in
childhood.

I’ve been painting or creating something all the time ever since I was a toddler. I remember how colourful and magical the world was as a child. There were infinite possibilities and nothing I couldn’t do.

Today, I’m constantly changing – becoming one version of myself and then, after a while, being reborn anew. My paintings reflect what I need in my life at the time.

I believe that people, who need the same energy in their lives,
will find their way to me and my art.

 ART SESSIONS

Last year I’ve started to guide meditative painting sessions, to hold space for others to create and play with paints as well. 

My dream is to inspire those who’ve lost touch with their inner playful child to create once again.

Art is the space where you can be as free as a child at play

I’ve learnt that I
live in seasons.

I’m inspired, then depressed, then in love, then seeking adventure, and then needing peace. For that reason, my art is constantly changing too. I don’t paint all the time. I wait for the right season.
