Elin Lahdenperä is 33 years old and comes from Koskullskulle in Swedish Lapland. She currently lives in Tromsø in northern Norway.

Trough many years of training she has learned to tame the volatile watercolour paint and now she makes them follow her plan, even though part of the plan is often to let them flow freely within given frames.

She works with many different layers and techniques to create a sense of movement in her abstract paintings. Often she is inspired by the ever-changing arctic nature surrounding her; the big mountains, forests in different seasons, the wild or calm sea and and the dancing northern lights.
