Swedish
Scrimshaw and enamel
Ms. Lancing utilizes a technique for etching images on the surface of goose eggs. Often using old sailing ships as her subject matter, she produces images of astonishing clarity and beauty. Ms. Lancing is also a highly accomplished enamel artist and here her inspiration springs from the daily life of the fishermen as she sees them with their boats and nets right outside her studio window. Ms. Lancing’s work is represented in most cultural and maritime museums in Sweden and Denmark and she has also exhibited in Greece, Denmark, Finland and England.
