Wednesday, May 9th, 2012A couple of light towers painted with acrylics. One a miniature of 4×4 cm… The second one is in a journal I need to send on. As you can see, light-houses and -towers are on my mind
The mariner pilot
Friday, May 4th, 2012This little painting in my journal is inspired by some of the stories I´ve been reading about the brave men and the tough women living by the sea. One of the most dangerous jobs one could have was being a pilot, helping ships and boats safely through unfamiliar and dangerous parts of the coast. It´s [...]

I´ve placed links to everyone that has a web-site, so you can check out more of all their wonderful creativity!

Mexico – travel journal
Wednesday, April 11th, 2012Here are some of the pages in my art-journal. I usually have a handy sized travel-journal with me, but since I was going to ARTFEST, I thought I´d just use the same journal. I did use mainly the same travel-arting-kit though, with water-color and a black pen. A little gel-medium to use as glue in [...]

(I did remember to take some more photos this day, though) Me and teacher/artist/ICEresin-inventor Susan Lenart Kazmer. The class was called Transparent text, and we worked with ICE resin (which I´ve been curious about for years). And as if that wash´t exciting enough, [...]
Artfest 2
Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012Second day at Artfest I took Lorraine Reynolds´class Books Unbound. Guess what. It was so intense and so fun, I totally forgot to take photos! I did make two covers, this is one of them; a tribute to my Grandfather. He was a welder at a ship-engine factory, and my Dad just gave me this [...]
Arting at Michelle´s day 2
Wednesday, March 28th, 2012A new day at the top of the stairs. All the coolest Arting-ladies around came! Lulu working on her amazing trades.

The never-resting Deirdra with her beautiful porcelain-like dolls. They´re [...]
