MY UPDATES!
How many years apart?
What a historical experience I had today! Some of you know how I'm working hard right now to become strong and reduce my pain in my back, hip and knee.
A couple of weeks ago, I told you in my blog about how I've started to train in a gym with a personal trainer. And already now after two weeks I feel a change. Very positive.
All summer I have used our pool at home and 4-5 times a week I've been "bycycling" around, around, sitting on a "floating sausage" as I call them. As the yellow one in the…
Today is the International Mouth and Foot Painters’ Day
To draw attention to this, I am posting a film about my artistry. You can also read more on my Art page »
The photo is taken at the autumn Exhibition 2019 when we had the pleasure to have Tom Yendell as our guest. He is one of the painters in our Association and also a member of the Board.Â
On the photo in front of us: Eva Backlund and Maria Andreasson.
Because of Corona we haven't had any Exhibition during 2020 and 2021 at our Gallery in Stockholm. A big hope is that 2022 will be a year full…
Now it's Paralympics!
As I write, I watch the Opening Ceremony of the Paralympics Games in Japan. And as I watch, many memories comes to my mind.
As one of all the athletes sitting there in the front row at the huge arena in Seoul in 1988 at the Opening Ceremony, full of expectations and truly excited about the competition days ahead of me, was an enormous experience. As for all elite athletes, the Olympic Games are the absolute biggest competition you can compete in. And as an athlete, it requires an enormous amoun…
Finally it’s ready! A new homepage…
It really is a jungle! Building a website can be done in so many ways and on so many platforms.
I have quite high demands because I want to be able to do so much on my website. It would be easier if I was just a singer and artist, just had a foundation or just had a shop. But I do all that and a little more so it hasn’t been easy to find what fits me the best.
But now it’s published! How fun! And I hope it will be easier for you to find the things you are interested in and are looking for.

From TED to Mexico
Al Gore, Bill Gates, Hans Rosling and I were some of the speakers at TED in Los Angeles in the spring of 2009. It was a tremendous experience and honor to be a part of this great event. In the program I would talk right after Meg Ryan who would give a 5-minute speech and read a poem she had written about the joy of becoming a mother but for various reasons it was cancelled. Right after my speech Herbie Hancock and his marvelous musicians played. And behind the stage I had a little chat with Jami…
