Don't turn around

Most of you know about Henry Darger, but if you don't soon you will. Here's a trailer to the film In the Realms of the Unreal.

Jens Fänge a great swedish artist.

Super duper man is coming for a visit

Cara Barer a photographer that likes paper. Rosalie Gascoigne makes different collages. Both links found at the Lumper. I also very much liked this link to Tim Hussey.

Here's my collage that you saw a glimpse from in another post, another day.

Happy accidents

I cut out this lady and accidentally I cut in another paper at the same time. She turned out better than the original one when she had got a face.

I started with more links, but this one is so good I had to take the other ones away - Alicia Henry!

Enamel and e-mail

A quick visit to KKV today, met Alexandra who was working with enamel.

I've been having e-mail problems. So if you've e-mailed me and I haven't answered, or you've got your e-mail returned, I probably haven't got your e-mail. I'm sorry about this, but it is out of my control.

November

The leaves are long gone, but that doesn't make nature all grey. I love those muted warm colours. Can you see the different kinds of green in the trees?

Abigail just updated her shop. And so did Gracia and Louise, Hammer and Daisy.

stuff

In spring 2006 I did a paper swap with people around the world. Now I have a paper treasure, just for my pleasure :) I got some old wallpapers from Amy (Posy*Press).

Ana Ventura - vernissage/show opening at Bourgeois Pig, in Heidelberg, today. GOOD LUCK, ANA *

Recipe

If you are tired of yourself, put your legwarmers on, go for a fika with new friends (S and E), walk around in the city and when your feets are tired go to a restaurant with old friends.

I trust you

Two paper links: Noriko Ambe and Laura Cooperman, both found through Ariel.
If you want to join a Christmas swap - Gingillo is the place.

Silence

I'm a little bit tired of myself, it's just one of those days.
It's Thanksgiving, we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Sweden (happy Thanksgiving to you who celebrates it). But that doesn't mean we aren't thankful :) I'm thankful for you and my blog, I'm thankful for the new friends I've met through here, I'm thankful for beeing able to live as I am, to work with things I really want to.

Pravoslav Rada (click at dílo) from Czech Republic a pioneer of ceramic techniques, look at this bird! I know hey are selling some of his small heads at Shelf, London. I wish I could go there.

Studio fika

I had a fika in a friends studio, Marie Sjölander. She has a show opening on saturday at Konstepidemin (the place Bibbi is blogging about).

Yet another interview... I think I learn things about myself answering these questions and reading the interviews. And I always love the introductions :)) Thank you Victoria.

Monday

Busy, busy, just a quick hi from Morran.

Shari interviewed me for her Holiday gift guide, and she is writing so nice about me. She's writing better (and longer) than I answer... :)
Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison.

Light

It was a very strange pink light outside, before it got dark. Which it gets very early this time of the year. It's dark half past four! And it's getting darker. Luckily there are other light sources.
A classic friday dinner with shrimps and wine.

A closer look

Thank you for your comments :)

Here is two screenprint tutorials. - no media king's tutorial, cheap screenprint tutorial from Craftgrrl.

Today is the launch day for port2port's 2008 calendar!

Sandra is back from Berlin.

Suspense

The place, KKV, where I do the screenprinting is a fantastic place with lot of workshops for different materials. If you need and have a special project you can rent a studio for a while.

Here's the prints. I'm keeping the suspense :) I'll show them closer tomorrow (It's already to dark to photograph).

Doing some research for an illustration job I found this H C Andersen treasure - 1 - 2 - 2,5

Screenprinting

Puh, I'm exhausted, I've been screenprinting all day. You know how it is when you do things you don't ususally do, you get double tired :) I was at KKV with the super girl Alexandra Hedberg, she wasn't tired she ran off to give an aerobic class, guess you can do that when you have super power. I think I will make a cup of tea and sit in front of the tv for the rest of the evening.

Sunday walk

Cold but still a varm sun, and no wind. A wonderful sunday walk around a lake.

Sun in a jar.

I like my floor, but wouldn't it be nice to have some of these tiles somewhere in your home.

Working on a screenprint

Bluebird

So it's friday again, how did that happen. They say that time flies faster and faster. Then, when I'm 80 years old, I will only have time for breakfast :)

I'm happy for my new necklace from Paraphernalia.
