He was also a musician and dancer and liked traveling to Paris. This extensive work has plenty of Swedish text, but also practically every other page has a large and beautiful photograph to offer.

==Biography==
When she had left the girl's school in Örebro Elin Wallin went to evening courses at the Technical school in Örebro in 1901-1902. In 1902 she passed the examination as a needlework mistress at Hulda Lundin’s seminary in Stockholm and after that she continued her studies in 1902-1904 at Althins målarskola. Caleb Althin was the founder of Althin’s school of painting, a private art school on Grevgatan 26 in Östermalm in Stockholm. For several decades the school played an important role, not least by preparing young artists for the Academy of Arts. And during the years 1902-1904 she studied in the evenings at the University College of Arts, Crafts and Design (in Swedish simply known as ''Konstfack'') in Stockholm. Konstfack, sometimes also called Tekniska skolan, was at that time in the block of Beridarebanan in Norrmalm, between Klara kyrka and Hötorget. During two periods, in 1905-1906 and 1910-1911, she studied at the Académie Colarossi in Paris. The school Académie Colarossi even accepted female students and allowed them to draw from the nude male model. Colarossi was as an alternative to the government-sanctioned École des Beaux Arts that had, in the eyes of many promising young artists at the time, become far too conservative. Together with her husband David Wallin she travelled for studies for longer or shorter time, to London in 1905, Paris 1905-1906 and 1910-1911, Italy 1908-1910, Germany 1905, 1906 and 1908, Denmark 1908.
Most of Elin Wallin's production wer created during the years 1902-1919. She has mainly been occupied with portraits in oil, pencil and tempera, as well as drawing and painting flowers and landscapes in oil, watercolor, pencil and charcoal. Wallin's art can, by sheer radiant colors display relations David Wallin. The landscapes and portraits of her husband, one senses perhaps more reminiscent of French impressionism. Mostly, however, her paintings carries her own mark, especially the children portraits with their bright color touches. In bright memories she tries to cling to elements of their seven children, of whom she lost two in a very early age. There are pictures from a family album, with no claim to universality, but right in the humble plea to heart. Wallin has also appeared with illustrations in magazines.
