Jonna Jinton

Artist, Filmographer, story teller, Musician, Fairy, Nature Goddess

My name is Jonna Jinton (pronounced Yoh-na Yinton). I'm a Swedish artist, filmmaker, and nature lover, and I live in the beautiful woods in the North of Sweden.

Through my stories, videography, photography, painting, music, kulning (nordic herdingcalls), ice baths, nature hikes, inspirational films, and glimpses of my everyday life in the “world of the midnight sun”, I share with you a mix of everything that I feel passionate about.

I share this with you through my social media and website, where my husband also makes beautiful sacred jewelry.

Join me on my adventures that will hopefully lift your spirits and make you fall in love with the rhythm of a life lived in greater harmony with the natural world.

From Dream To Reality

This video is about how I changed my life 8 years ago, when I left the city life and moved 1000 km to the north and started a new life close to nature. Close to all the things my heart was longing for.

These 8 years have been so challenging and hard but also wonderful and magical in every single way.

I have learned so much from that day I came to the old house in this small village in the forest with no money, no job and no plan on what I should do with my life.

But from that day I started living, for real.

I started appreciating things that I had never even thought of when living in an apartment in the city. And I learned that you can never feel the wonderful, comfort feeling of warmth if you have not yet been cold.

I started with nothing but a dream. And today, I live my dream.

Everyday I feel so thankful for still being able to live here in my little paradise deep in the forests in the north of Sweden, and working with all the things I love, and sharing my life with someone I love.

In this video you get to see a short summary of these years. Of course, many details are not included since the video would be 2 years long if I would include all the things that happened along the way. But at least it tells my story in a big picture :) I hope you like it! ♥

Painting With Natural Earth Pigments

Hi my loves! A very common question that I've got lately is about my painting technique and how I make paint out of natural materials like stones, sand, ashes, charcoal, mud etc.

So in this video I wanted to open up the door into my little painting world and show you step by step how I make my own paint with these natural materials.

Painting is one of my biggest passions in life!

And since I started making my very own paints from pigments in nature I really felt how something "clicked" and I really found something that felt completely right in my heart.

The first week I started experimenting with making my own paint I just couldn't stop paint.

I locked myself into the studio and felt spellbound by these beautiful colors and textures from nature.

And I keep learning and exploring every time I paint, and keep experimenting with different materials from nature.

I really hope I could give you all some inspiration and some answers to all your questions about my painting technique! :)

Nordic Ice Bath

Everyones talking about sharing morning routines. So, here you got one! ;) A refreshing ice bath/swim. Wouldn't you all agree that this is the best way to starting off the day? No more hot showers. No more comfort zone.

SKÅL! (Cheers!)

And good morning!

Now, go get out there and make the best out of this day!

The power is all within you.

In The Land Of The Gods

I think I've never smiled as much as I did now while editing a video before, because I got reminded of these beautiful and magical days in the mountains.

For real, these days were the best in the whole summer so far, and I am sure you will understand why after watching this video.

So in this video I will share with you my days in the cabin and exploring the beautiful nature of Marsjällen, in the north of Sweden.

Yeah...this place in the mountains really has a special place in my heart.

It was my little mini vacation of 4 days but I felt as if I filled my heart with memories that I will have for the rest of my life.
