Mika Liffner lives on a small farm in Tryserum and works as a teacher and artist. She paints on recycled materials, leftover building materials, fabrics and old shelves. She paints quickly, which requires paint that dries quickly. It will be acrylic paint. With her paintings, she wants to tell us about everything she sees and everything she thinks.
