Welcome to my site! I work as a costume-designer and an artist, and creating, or ARTING as I prefer, makes me happy! This is both a portfolio of things I´ve made and a blog meant to inspire.

Baby sister

Wednesday, January 11th, 2012

This is my baby sister. As you can see she´s pretty pregnant, and we wanted to take some pictures of her beautiful big baby-belly. We are all very excited to meet her first-born. In a month´s time, I´ll have a brand new baby to spoil right next door! How great is that!

Art-series

Wednesday, January 4th, 2012

I´ve added a new page on my site. I´ve called it art-series, as it simply is art I´ve made that I will print in more than one copy. Not uniqua-pieces like I always do, in other words. The reason for me making this little collection, is to have smaller pictures for cabins on ships, in [...]

Nordmann Arctic

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

I recently delivered pictures for Nordmann Arctic. The new-built offshore vessel for Solstad Offshore ASA. I delivered 18 series-pictures for their cabins. They´re a mix of new and old pictures from Skudesnes that I have worked with, where the Solstad head-office is.  Here are some of them: Usually I only make unica-pieces, but I do [...]

cabin pictures

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011

My days are busy making smaller pictures intended for cabins. While I still use the evenings for more personal arting (it is after all soon Christmas, and gifts need to be made), I thought I´d give you a little peak of what I´m working on in my “day-job”. Yesterday I finished the invitations for the [...]

Stril Orion

Saturday, October 29th, 2011

Simon Møkster Shipping newly built supply ship Stril Orion is being Christened today. I delivered the artwork for all the common-areas, and a smaller picture for all the cabins. This is the picture you first see when you come into the mess. It feels like the signature picture for the boat, and I am sorry I [...]

Art&Soul: Charm School

Monday, October 3rd, 2011

My final workshop at Art & Soul was with Lisa Call. Her Charm School was another just wonderful class. Using PMC (precious metal clay) we made silver beads and charms. The larger ones we baked in a kiln (below), but the smaller ones we could fire with a buthan-torch, as Lisa is demonstrating (above). So [...]

Brage Supplier

Friday, September 30th, 2011

Brage Supplier is the name of a new supply-ship. The owner is Brage Suppliers, and it is being built in India. Since the owner wanted motifs from Bergen, this is what I have worked with. Bergen has a World Heritage site, the quay “Bryggen”. A long row of old sea-houses from the 15th century. In [...]

Art&Soul: Fire torch enamel

Friday, September 30th, 2011

I attended my second workshop today: Painting with Fire torch Fired Enamel! by Barbara Lewis. Oh, what fun! I´ve said it before, I´ll say it again: I LOVE learning new stuff! I hardly had time or thought of taking photos, I just got in there and experimented and produced one enameled bead after the other. [...]

Art&Soul: Silk dreams

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

Tuesday evening I attended my first class as a student, and as you can tell by the title, this is a good one! “Silk dreams!” Seriously?! A dream-come-true! Under the superb guidance of Liz Kettle, we did things with left-over silk fibers I didn´t even know was possible! I´m sorry to say the photos just [...]
