Animalia is an ongoing collection of paintings inspired by the quiet magic that animals have carried through story, myth, and memory. In many early cultures — including my own nordic heritage — animals were seen as guides, protectors, even godlike beings woven into the fabric of everyday life. These pieces draw from that lineage of folk tradition and symbolism, celebrating the creatures who have always held a place in our imaginations. Painted with a sense of play, reverence, and intuition, Animalia invites you into a world where animals speak, listen, and remind us of the ancient threads connecting all living things.
