Wickström studied at the University of Art and Design from 1902 to 1904, and her teacher, W.A. Finch, considered her exceptionally talented.
After graduating, she continued her studies in Düsseldorf from 1905 to 1907 and further developed her skills in various parts of Europe. In 1914, she married the artist Germund Paaer, after which she used the artist name Siru Wirva.
