In an old telephone exchange in Målilla, Annika has her studio Annika Mikkonen Art. Annika mostly paints with watercolors that feel alive with the unpredictable and unexpected. She also likes to draw with charcoal, pencil, crayons or ink.
She has a studio but preferably paints and she draws out in reality wherever she is. She explores and explores the motifs with watercolor colors, pencils, charcoal or crayons and tries to tell about both the exterior that one can see and experience but also about the inner landscape, the feeling. Natural watercolor pigments, coarse-grained paper and plenty of water together give a vivid and earthy expression that feels right.
Annika was born and raised in Vagnhärad, Södermanland and almost 30 years ago she moved to Målilla in the municipality of Hultsfred.
In addition to separate exhibitions, Annika has participated in a large number of collective exhibitions, many of which are jury-judged.
She is happy to receive visits to her studio by appointment. Contact her before.
