During her time at university, she studied abroad on several occasions, traveling to various countries including China, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, the Czech Republic and the United Kingdom. These experiences of captivating cultures, remarkable architecture, extraordinary art and fascinating people as well as Swenson’s interest and love of Art History play a persistent inspiration for her work.

Since childhood, Swenson has been creating some form of art. Now in her thirties, art is still an innate part of her.

An other amazing work, mysterious and poetic!
When I saw the first step, I thought “hey, that looks great already!” Maybe you should make some more simple works too, maybe it’d allow new art experiences!
But this looks great, each of your collages is better than the other, I hope someday I’ll be able to afford one ;)

The funny thing is–these works are way more simple than the imagery I was creating as I finished college. Those were almost too chaotic. But your idea is certainly worth looking into, maybe for a future artist date.

ah well, you certainly have a huge talent for building the images, it never looks crowded like collages often do, so it always looks great. That one collage actually inspired me for small cannevas presents i did for my family, I’m ashamed cuz I totally used ur idea, even though I couldn’t make it look that great ^^ not my fault if your art is so inspiring ;)

“There is nothing new under the sun” I am not much of one for clichés but I think that one is pretty true. You didn’t steal an idea from me. Art is art–and if I inspired you to make some art, that is bitchin, but the idea was never mine to steal. It does mean a lot to me that you find my work inspiring though–seriosusly. You always leave such kind and thoughtful comments on my posts. I do really appreciate your support.
