Leiif Holgersson

Leiif Holgersson, born in 1939, is a versatile and talented Swedish creator in art, illustration, design and decoration. From an early age, he demonstrated a fervent passion for creating and exploring diverse forms of artistic expression.

In the 1960s, Leiif founded his own advertising agency and for two decades, up until the 1980s, he was a significant player in the world of advertising. Between 1970 and 1980, Leiif also worked as a decorator at the Swedish department store Gekås in Ullared.

In the late 70s, Leiif took the plunge and became a full-time artist, and has since produced a number of impressive works of art, but also participated in over 50 exhibitions in Sweden, Europe and North America. In addition to creating art, Leiif has also shared his knowledge and passion by running his own painting courses from 1978 to 2010.

Over the years, Leiif has had the pleasure of collaborating with us at Ekelund and continually looks forward to new challenges, collections, and opportunities within the textile industry
