Guðrún is an Icelandic artist, born and raised in Reyjavík. She is born to a family of renowned artists, all respected in the Icelandic art community, and therefore she has had inspiring role models from an early age. As a child she followed her father´s artwork with interest, his drawing and his painting. Sitting in his lap with a paintbrush as a young girl inspired her to become an artist herself. Her mind is very much in tune with creation, nature, perspective and colour. Water colouring is the technique of her choice, an artform that fascinates her. To her it is a way to ex-press the inspiration she takes from the extraordinary Icelandic nature. She has studied various forms of art creation, such as model drawing, watercolouring, oil painting and charcoal drawing to name a few. Her instructors include artists such as Derek Mundell, Keith Hornblower, Ann Larson Dahlin, Lene Gemzöe and Þorgrímur Andri Einarsson. Exhibitions
