Hey there! My name's Thaelie, but my friends call me Thi. I'm a 20-year-old artist from Copenhagen. Born and raised in the city of canals and architecture. Growing up with Scandinavian beauty standards wasn't always easy for me - as an adult, I like to rebel against those expectations by embracing my true self.
I've got Nordic features, pale skin with subtle gray streaks around my eyes. My eyes are a light blue color that sometimes seems almost grey depending on the lighting. When I wake up in the morning, my lips are always chapped - I find it hard to resist licking them.
In the past few years, I've been trying to explore my own identity through art and photography. That's why you see me with tattoos visible on my skin; they're a part of who I am.
My hair is usually untamed and unbrushed, but I like that wild look - it makes me feel more authentic somehow. And honestly? I don't really do makeup; there's something liberating about not having to conform to beauty standards all the time.
Right now, you're seeing a photo of me taken in my tiny apartment studio - it's a cluttered space filled with art supplies and half-finished projects. The gray knit sweater is from my mom; she knits those things like they're going out of style!
As for this photo specifically... I was experimenting with natural lighting, trying to capture the texture of skin
