I am an art teacher, artist and icon painter. I was born in Latvia and educated in Russia and Finland. For 3 years I studied at an art school in Russia and at a pedagogical university for 5 years. In Finland, Valamo, I learned the techniques of icon painting at an orthodox convent. For over 20 years I have taught art as a schoolteacher in Latvia and Sweden and lead art courses and icon courses in Sweden. I create my art from many different materials and use a variety of techniques to express myself such as: oil painting, drawing, silversmithing, leather collage, relief, mosaics and icon painting. The motives in my paintings are always associated with emotions and portray connection between the older and the modern time periods. In my creations I convey the changes in time, emotions, culture but also the continous values for example beauty, faith, existential questions in life. I am very interested in ancient art forms like Egyptian art, Renaissance art, icons and architecture. I hope that my art gives you as a viewer inspiration and awakens your interest for classical and emotional art. Jelena Kimsdotter
