Stenfågeln design by Sirgitta Keiskander

My earliest imagery is the flower pattern of my dresses. What luck to see the pattern move when I touched!

As a visual artist, I had a longing to let my pictures go further and form patterns; something I now do under the name of the Stenfogel design. At the beginning there is always the drawing. I hand in pencils, after which I scan the pictures and then process them on my computer. The stencil’s pattern world consists to a very large extent of things from the plant kingdom; of flowers and leaves, but also of insects and other things that crawl and crawl.
