Hi and welcome to my world of dreamy paintings

I´m Mikaela, a painter with a little studio in a pink 100-year old house in Southern Finland.

My paintings are often abstract, leaving space for the viewers own imagination and intuitive interpretation. I get inspired by everyday encounters and the beauty of people's life stories and dreams - I just love a good story and adventures!

I have always felt there are a lot of stories inside of me waiting to be born. Never being quite able to settle where I have been, something pushing me towards the very things I so hard tried to resist for a long time - painting. Life, making me face big challenges and crises, to make me stop running, to make me listen and to re- awaken that creative flow inside of me.

Light is the core of my paintings and the one thing that has been there from the very beginning and which keeps evolving. It is something I'm constantly studying and developing to dig deeper into finding the core in each piece.

I believe art can heal, inspire and bring joy and through my art I'm inviting you on a magical artventure of your own.
