Andreasén-Lindborg studied art at the Art Institute of Chicago from 1896 to 1897 and at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen from 1900 to 1907, where she was the first woman to be awarded a gold medal in 1906. She moved to Stockholm in 1908 and studied under Axel Tallberg at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts' etching school in 1909. Together with her husband, she exhibited at the Salong Joel in Stockholm and she participated in the exhibitions of Grafiska sällskapet [sv], the spring exhibitions at Charlottenborg Palace in Copenhagen and the Chicago Society of Etchers' exhibitions in Chicago. Her art consists of portraits, animals, still lifes and landscapes in oil, watercolor, pencil and etchings.
