Saturday, February 4th, 2012Today´s photo-challenge was hands, and since today is the first day of the big Motown choir-project, and the whole weekend is about music, I took a snapshot of the pianist´s hands in action. Bømlo Theatre´s 3rd efficient choir-project: 2 weekends, 2 concerts, 65 singers, 7 band-members, 15 hits from the 1960s and 1970s… this can [...]
February Photo challenge
Thursday, February 2nd, 2012Teesha Moore posted this challenge yesterday, and I thought I´d join in I didn´t start taking picture until today, but the view is the same today. Cold and grey outside, and not really all that festive on the inside either. This is the window at my studio, which is more like my warehouse for storage. [...]
steam-punk-ish necklace
Sunday, January 29th, 2012I made this little steam-punk-ish pendant a while ago. Minimizing a picture I made of my Grand-dad, copying it onto transparency film, and cutting it into shape. The pendant has two pieces of glass to protect the film. I combined it with a small enameled bead I made at Art & Soul (top left) and [...]
paint-day with the kids
Saturday, January 28th, 2012My niece and nephew are home! And whenever they come home, they come ringing on my door early in the morning, asking if they can paint. My sister says they think it´s cool to have a real artist as an aunt! I found some mini-canvases, which they thought were REALLY small, but we finally agreed [...]
Sunset seahouse
Wednesday, January 25th, 2012I´ve been wanting to make a big painting of sea-houses at sunset. I found a wooden plate in the cellar, and gave it a red wash. After a couple of layers, the shapes are defined. This time I wanted to try something new: the extra heavy gel medium. I´m repainting everything I already had painted [...]
Stavanger Street art
Saturday, January 21st, 2012I was visiting a friend in Stavanger yesterday who guided me around on a little photo-safari. She showed me these amazing street art paintings / graffiti made by Canadian artists. I´m in awe! Both of the quality, the shere size, and the ideas. Enjoy! This last one is the lighthouse at Obrestad. I´ve heard this [...]
Motown-project
Thursday, January 19th, 2012Bømlo Theatre´s new choir-project, for which I´m the production-leader. Tomorrow is the deadline for joining , if anyone wants to be a part of the funk! This time around it will be classical Motown-hits we´ll have fun with! This is the choir for busy people. Two weekend-rehearsals, rounded off with two concerts. Efficient, just the [...]
ship-building backstage
Wednesday, January 18th, 2012Being in Ulsteinvik I got the chance to look at one of the supply-ships I´m making art for, while it is still very much a work-in-progress. I find looking onboard these ships so interesting, and thought you might like a look too. This ship will be finished in two months, and it seems there is [...]
silk velvet
Sunday, January 15th, 2012Yesterday´s white-on-white fabric silkscreen print on silk satin in day-light. Lately I´ve taken a strong liking to creative projects that isn´t done in 30 minutes, projects that take days and weeks, even months to finish. I´m having a great time with my time-consuming crafts, but there is a lot less action for the blog. Future-evening-hobby-project-in-the-planning-alert! [...]
Home
Friday, January 6th, 2012My apologies for being absent and not-creative, but you see, the past days I´ve been really busy cleaning and tidying my house, almost beyond recognition… Now why would I do a thing like that? Well, because an interior magazine is coming to visit! How cool is that! Rett hjem is a free interior magazine for [...]
