I M P R O V E D


Didn´t feel quite confortable
walking around
in the old dreamhouse.

I changed it a little
and now I LOVE being there.

Questions?

NATALIE

AND

HER

TIRED

LITTLE

SISTER

DANAIT



Today

I got

my first

request

from someone

unknown

to take pictures

at a wedding.

Do I dare?



It is so important
to be playful,
relaxed and have fun
when being creative!

It was fun
to take pictures
of this little girl.
She enjoyed it alot too.
I didn´t NEED to
achieve anything.

It is so important
to remember this
even when I´ll get
payed (photo-) commissions:
I have to stay playful!

I like the combination of low budget, practical scills, fantasy, lots of heart and sence for harmony and beauty.

Ingrid brought me along to some lovely friends of hers. There was all of this. An oasis.

I can´t remember ever having felt so confortable around a "coffee-table". We sat around the low table on cushions and talked, Ingrid Magdalena, Daniel and I...




Magdalena gave me an award for my blog, "KREAVTIV BLOGGER AWARD" And a few days later I got another award; "du har en gullig blogg" from this blog. Tack till er båda!

Did I tell you
how much I needed a commission?

Did I tell you
how empty my pockets were getting?

Did I tell you
I even applied for two jobs
- that I didn´t get?
Good for me I didn´t!
If I would have -
I would have had to say
"sorry, I do not have time to paint"
last week as Gudrun called me from Eskilstuna.
Instead I said YES!

In two days I am going
to meet with Jonny in Eskilstuna
whos portrait I will be painting
this lovely spring.

Yesterday I realized,
as it was time again
to get ready for the sun-glade (Noaks kindergarden)
that the light had returned...
The sun was already up to greet us
as we jumped out of bed!

Big sister, little brother.

Hello world!
I am sitting here alive at the kitchentable with the window on my right. Am painting a small portrait of Danait while I listen to Paul McKenna speaking encouraging words. While I have Yogi tea that have been on the stove for 25 minutes. It is calm. It is allright. Some things are even very, very good!

Tell me!

Intelligent people, wise people, tell me;
What if I sell my photographs through here?
www.imagecatalog.com
I have no idea myself,
if it is a wise thing to do
but I welcome ways to earn money
for our survival :-)

In our home
were many fragnances of Christmas.
Hyasinter, stearinljus, pepparkakor och gran.

Beside Santa Claus who dropped by for a while in the afternoon,
we had just one visitor - but a very dear visitor - Prince of Peace.
It snowed a little bit.

Names of friends and family in out christmastree.

In the afternoon
Annelie and I took a walk in the neighbourhood.
We handed out a "book"
we printed last week
wich we started working at
a year and a half ago.
It is about people who have lived here
since our neighbourhood was new
40 years ago.
Annelie wrote.
I took pictures.

I have taken a day off... Hey, it is Sunday after all!
Have had friends gathering around our piano.
We have sung just because of our LOVE for singing.
Then we had a beautiful little teatime together
as it felt as though my friends had always known one another.

Yes, here they are - my flower boots.
