Guarded by Love, 2026
Blyerts
42 x 29,7 cm
10 000 kr
To begin 2026, the Year of the Horse, I present "Guarded by Love".
Two wild horses rest their heads together in a moment of stillness, their bodies close, their connection unspoken. One remains awake, alert yet calm, while the other surrenders fully to rest. In this gentle contrast between watchfulness and trust, the drawing reveals love not as something loud or dramatic, but as quiet presence.
The open eyes become a symbol of guardianship driven by care, while the closed eyes speak of safety and peace. The work reflects how love can be a form of protection, and how peace is sometimes found not in solitude, but in being safely seen and gently held by another.

I am a self-taught graphite artist based in Sweden, creating highly detailed animal drawings that blend realism with atmosphere, storytelling, and emotional depth.
Through graphite, I focus on capturing not only physical detail, but also movement, presence, and personality. Rather than portraying animals as simple subjects, I approach them as living beings with their own spirit and unspoken story. Many of my works reflect human experiences through the symbolism of animals, inviting viewers to slow down, reflect, and connect with something both wild and deeply familiar.
Animals have always been a central part of my life and creative journey. Through both original artworks and custom commissions, I aim to create meaningful pieces that honor the souls who inspire them while preserving moments of connection, memory, and emotion.
I welcome inquiries in both English and Swedish.
