Hanne Mejlgaard, born in 1947. Graduated in 1975 as an authorized medical secretary.
I have always worked with many artistic elements – but in 2001 the art school: Maison des Arts, located in Colle Sur Loup, France, became a turning point for me. It gave me a speciel kind of happiness and set of mind, opening the doors to the world where I now much more determined can concentrate on my artistic activities.
After I returned home to Denmark, I followed courses to learn even more. Among others at a Spanish artist and an Iceland artist.
I joined the group Åbne Døre i Gentofte from 2005, where I still am today.
I have made prescription envelopes for Glostrup Apotek, which become an object of collection over the entire country.

I have been part of “Åbne Døre” (open doors) in Gentofte since 2005, which have an open gallery every year for local people to see our art.
I was in Social gadekunst in Gentofte in 2014, where I collaborated with Diabetesforeningen. We were 13 artists, each of us donated our art piece at an auction at a Gallery in Knud Grothe, Charlottenlund, for the occation Frivilligheden fejredes in that week. The gallery was opened by the mayor Hans Toft. A gallery I have been very grateful to be a part of.
My customers er diverse. I have among others painted for: Rigshospitalets Kunstforening, Frederiksberg Hospitals kunstforening, Rederiet TORM multiple times, NOMECO and many other private customers.
I display mostly from my own gallery/atelier, where you can always call/write to visit my pieces and have a talk about what you are interested in, or simply to look at what I already have, without having to purchase anything.
I also have a lovely garden, which is part of my creativity – It is still beautiful in the winter, as seen under the garden menu.14
