About Lene
Hi - I'm Lene Daugaard. I'm a passionate illustrator and painter and this website is home to my small one-woman business Lene Daugaard Illustration.
I live in Jutland and fortunately close to both forest, beach and nature areas, and also being able to quickly get to the big city.
I love to draw and paint, especially animals, natural elements and female motifs.
I draw both realistically - where I delve into details, textures and the specific - and more stylized, where I
draw and paint more freely and playfully. I can completely immerse myself and experience through pen and brush.
I am fascinated by animals and nature, and find it important that we protect and cherish both domestic and wild animals, which includes their habitats and environments.
Animals are amazing and beautiful creatures that have every right to be here.

Drawing background:
I am a trained graphic designer, have attended the School of Classical Drawing, the School of Graphic Design, Graphic School and Art&Design, as well as participated in courses over the years, e.g. croquis, colored pencil - I am happy to think back on my online courses with the astonishing cp-artist Bet Borgeson - acrylic and watercolor painting.
In 2021 I participated in Art2Life's online course Creative Visionary Programme. A very intense 3 month course on art principles. I have participated in a 1-year course at Miriam Schulzman's The Artist Incubator and participated in Stacie Bloomfield's "Leverage your art", which is a business course for illustrators and designers.

Other Interests
When I'm not drawing, being out in nature is important to me. Nature is where I best recharge with renewed energy. My sister and I enjoy going on 1-day hikes around heaths and plantations and forests in Jutland.
My newest interest is clay. So I take great pleasure in shaping different things in clay and polymer clay.
I also like to visit zoos / greenhouses, I love watching films and musical theatre, and reading books. I would like to travel on holidays. And I enjoy doing yoga and being with my daughter and family.
I love animals, and find it important that we protect and care for both domestic and wild animals. I therefore support several organizations that work hard for animals and their environment. Animals are amazing and beautiful creatures and they have feelings.
I am interested in personal and spiritual development, which is why I meditate and continue to seek to expand my horizons in that direction. That's why I meditate and keep myself informed especially with in The 3 Principles.
