Who am I then?
I am about to introduce myself in a moment, but first 3 quick facts about me:
I am Swedish, but are currently based in Scotland.
I am an introvert.
I would love to own a cat and a garden.
My name is Lovisa as you’ve probably already guessed. A 25-year-old that have been creating almost since I was born. There are saved drawings from my first year of life and that has only continued up to today.
I graduated in 2021 from Edinburgh College of Art studying Performance Costume and are now in the beginning of my career path. I am an artist, designer and maker of both visual art in general and costume in particular. I have costumed for both stage and screen in a variation of roles and are developing my own art practice.
So what will this blog be about?
On this blog, I will share stories about my process in current and past projects, longer and more personal than what would fit in an Instagram post, and let it grow organically from there. Hopefully you will be able to learn something new, get inspired to try a new craft or take up a hobby you’d forgotten you loved. Working with my hands is essential for me to function in life and is something I would like to share with the world.
If you are eager to start exploring and simply cannot wait another moment, have a look at my portfolio here on my website. There might even be an octopus robot or a dragon hidden away somewhere waiting for you to find them!
“Start Before You’re Ready”
I was so nervous writing this first post. Advice online told me to get it right from the start, no space for any error. Write a lot, call to action, teach your secrets, engage! I have tried to follow some of this advice, but in the end, the advice that stayed above all the others in my mind was this frase, because in the end, it is more important to write something rather than nothing.
