Lovisa from @lovanju
Jewellery Designer
For as long as she can remember, working and creating things with her hands has been Lovisas passion starting by playing the piano and afterwards making her own jewellery. As a kid she was already creative with FIMO and today she is trying to work with it as often as possible. Cutting out freehand small leaves or trees and create intricate patterns are her favorite techniques. Lovisa loves especially the freedom to create whatever you like and the high quality of FIMO. Her biggest source of inspiration is nature and not other polymer artists as comparing herself with others harms her creativity the freedom to do it her way. Her skills improve the most through a lot of practice and not giving up. ‘Be patient’ is her advise and trust in the process of improvement.
