Wooden stick collection




Sometimes you see a child carrying around on a bunch of wooden sticks and the parents desperately trying to convince their child to leave the sticks outside. I remember the feeling, not wanting to leave the things you had picked up, behind, all alone in the forrest.

Morran is relieved





Morrans surgery is postponed until november. So let's take a walk instead :)

I like Katy's jewellery a lot (I have a pair of earrings and a necklace that I use often. I wouldn't mind expanding my collection)

Work in progress - a public commission




Here is a little sneak peek on what I am working with right now. It is for a public commission in the north of Sweden, Skellefteå. It will be a wall full of portraits in a school auditorium for young kids. Walking with Morran and paint is almost the only things I got time for. I am exhausted but it is fun :)

No time to surf around much, but I found these two links over at A Cup of Jo -
Senior Dog Portraits (aahhh...)and Helmut Smits Rainbow

Right now






Colder. Spicy and colourful. Early darkness makes it possible to look inside. To take a peek in to peoples homes. And gives me a good reason to go inside. Soft and warm.

Two pics of the same couple from Nura, drawn and photographed

Morran and I say thank you :)

Super dogs





A picture of Morran from the booklet in the Suitcase Serie book, window dogs, Morran and Loppan is ready for a ride :)

On monday Morran will go for another surgery... She has another lump on/in her belly, she got it this spring but I ignored it. Now it is much bigger and I feel really bad I didn't do anything about it right away, but I was so tired of them and was hoping it would go away. I hope she is a super dog.

I've had a wonderful weekend







I went to the Louise Bourgeois exhibition at the Nordic Watercolour museum and spent a crispy day by the sea. Louise Bourgeois died this year at an age of 98 years old. Here is a little bit more about her and her art - Louise Bourgeois: 10 essential artworks

Calendar 2011!




My calendar is ready for pre-orders!
I don't have the time to pack and ship this year, but still wanted to make a 2011 calendar, so I've got help with that part. So don't be afraid if you don't recognise my "shop" :-) The price and the size is the same as last year and it contains work from my past year. I hope you'll like it.

See more pictures and order the calendar - here.

Fitted baby cot sheet





Finally I've got the baby cot sheet in my hand. It is a collaboration with the fantastic Third Drawer Down from Australia. You can see it on a baby bed here, and the other products I've done for them - here.

My 2011 calendar is almost ready, waiting to get it from the printer!
