Hi

 Hello, just a short message, and face, from me. I had fun with some torn paper again and made this funny face from leftovers. It makes me smile to see it in my sketchbook. Have a good day and keep making and enjoying ART!

This Friday my studio is open, 11-16 hours.

Good times making

 I spend some time working on two canvases, two Scandinavian landscapes. I took my paint and brushes, selected my compositions and just started. It is just good to focus and make. But many shades of green though... I adjusted a couple of times, but had fun.

When and what

 These pages are asking me: what is it gonna be? Make up your mind... I am just waiting for the right focus to draw something, and with a zillion things to do it is kind of difficult.

A different skill

 Learning something new is always interesting. This time I learned how to make a Sami-inspired bracelet of soft leather and silver decorations. The Sami people are living in the north of Scandinavia and are very creative. 

It was so nice to be busy and make something. Of course the materials you need were provided for. Working this small is a bit fiddly at first (hence we made a finger protection first...). Luckily my needle and thread skills came in handy :). But hey look at the result:



The course was part of the programme by Siegurd bushcraft and survival. They have multiple craft courses available.

Working on another design

 In my studio I have been working on a design for a new card. This is my first try, using watercolours. I think I will try again with acrylics and see the difference. Sometimes it takes a while to get it right... so just keep going ;).

New work

Making hours in the studio are almost always well spent. The joy of making and finishing with an end result, I like it! I will have another look at these four small artworks and then make them into finished paintings. Have a nice week, make something if you can!

Studio creative time

 I was in the mood for some fun and colour. So I took some paint and made playful marks, to see what would happen, and it ended with 4 small art works in cheerful colours :).

Have a nice week, I hope to spend more time in the studio.
