Born in Denmark in 1974. Lene spent her first childhood
years in China and later on in Brussels, Belgium, where
she attended the European School, graduating in 1992. It
was probably the multinational environment at the European
School which prompted Lene's passion for exploring new countries
and cultures. To this day, Lene is a keen and open-minded
traveller whose ventures have taken her halfway across the
globe and these trips are a significant source of inspiration
for the young artist.
In 1995, Lene moved to Rochester, England to pursue her
other major passion: The Arts. After finishing a National
Diploma course in Graphic Design, Lene enrolled in the BA(hons)
in Graphic Design and Media Design at the London College
of Printing. During her four years at the London College,
she explored various areas of art and Graphic Design. She
graduated in 2000 with a 1:1 degree. Since then, she has
been working from her studio in Crystal Palace, South London.
Lene enjoys and is inspired by nature and wildlife and
this is clear to see. Her motives range from British oak
leaves to brightly coloured Philippines flowers; both of
which will be portrayed with a keen sense of detail. However,
everyday objects and everyday London-life also play an important
role in her work. Lene uses a range of media including post
cards, photographs, collages and paintings.
This site will allow you to enjoy some of her best-liked
works.
