Brief Biographical Sketch:

My passion is art and using art as a tool for directing our choices in life. I would like to share this with high school students, for more on the work please see www.affirmativeart.org

Originally I am from Norway but over the last 15 years I have lived in East Africa.

Some of my work has been in art, others in agriculture. I have done some teaching about life choices at Nagenda Academy in Uganda. www,nagendacademy.com

A10212: Affirmative Art in Splash 2015 (Nov. 21 - 22, 2015)
Affirmative Art is a way for young people to visualize their dreams and aspiration. It is a tool for self reflection and what their future may look like. Using images, colours and if need be words. It is a fun and light way of getting closer to what we truly want in life, and therefor very useful. It normally ends with a presentation of each art work to explain it and discuss it.
