ABOUT MIMI
Mimi specializes in painting with acrylics on canvas, in a contemporary romantic and mystical realism style. Describing herself as a visual storyteller, her bright nature and landscape paintings are inspired by explorations and encounters in the outdoors.
Born in Stockholm, Sweden, Mimi studied at Stockholm University, completing a Bachelor of Arts with a Major in the History of Art in 2000. She began painting full time in 2016, and soon after joined the Fernie Arts Co-Op. Mimi currently resides in Elko, BC with her spouse and two children.
