Woo Bock Lee placed piece by piece and layer by layer in each work. It is the transitions between traditional stories that are conveyed such as forms of scrolls and globes in contemporary global setting.
I have been painting for as long as I can remember, but about eighteen years ago, I began sculpting in stone in earnest. Over time, stone has taken an increasingly central place in my work and is now my primary form of expression. In both painting and sculpting, I focus on the same themes or forms for extended periods.
The couple, Håkan Blomqvist and Karin Westman, have been working together for over 20 years, creating their unique glass sculptures, cast in sand molds. They use vibrant colors and clear glass to craft striking glass sculptures inspired by the world around us, both near and far.
My art is partly a spontaneous game, a gamble, to take advantage of the small inspiring details in life with the help of intuition.

The artist couple Aino Myllykangas and Jussi Taipaleenmäki live and work in Åkersberga. They find inspiration in Roslagen as well as from distant travels.
After a full professional life as a doctor – with plenty of gallery visits – for the past 15 years I have had the good fortune to paint myself. The first favorites were the American Expressionists and still are. I paint out of desire for color and form and sometimes to comment on the contemporary world.

Today I am an artist with a special love for watercolor painting. One of my favorite subjects is Stockholm, this fantastically beautiful city, whose beauty and character I often capture in my paintings.
Stanislaw Zoladz is undeniably one of Sweden's most skilled watercolor painters, with an impressive list of achievements and exhibitions. Watercolor painting differs significantly from other forms of painting. With oil or acrylic, one can work almost endlessly, adding, subtracting, and layering methodically. Watercolor, however, requires working in an intense present moment.
