Signe Flink
- New Hope -
My initial thought was that this wonderful bible verse is hard to put on
canvas due to the way it is written,
but then it hit me, suppose that this is
directed at me?
The God of hope infuses my faith
with joy and serenity and enriches my
hopes through the powers of the holy
ghost. This thinking delighted me and
I thought ‘this is fantastic’.
So I wanted my painting to reflect
the happiness and the hope conveyed
by the scripture . A newborn sun just
risen proclaiming a new fantastic day
with our lord.
Signe is born and raised in the
north of Sweden but moved south
and is now living in beautiful
Västervik with her husband Benny. Signe have drawn and painted
all her life and got her first real
aquarelle paint box on her 13th
birthday. Since then brushes and
aquarelle paper always ranked
highest on the wish list. Today
she is mostly working with acrylic, aquarelle, coal and oil.
Beside one year studying arts
and crafts on Edelviks folk high
school and some aquarelle/art
courses, Signe is self tought and
diverse in her creativity, she is
happy to take on new ways of
expression and try out new techniques.
“In my artistry I want to conway
peace, freedom, beauty, joy and
man’s relation with the living God.”
