Born in Denmark, Lone started painting lessons at 9, and at the age of 21 she received her Bachelor’s degree from the Interior Design School of Copenhagen. A couple of years later she left her homeland for Canada, where she continued her studies in drawing, painting and printmaking. She also embarked on a teaching career that spanned decades. She taught privately and had a 22 year involvement with the printmaking school at Dundarave Print Workshop and Gallery, 13 of those years spent running the school. Lone’s solo and group shows span from 1977 to the present. Her paintings, etchings and murals are in many public and private collections in Canada, U.S.A., Europe and Saudi Arabia.
