Björn Westerlund...

Björn Westerlund at gallery Kaustik.

Saturday the 28th of February it’s the opening of the exhibition.

I will see it later on, I like this image/illustration that comes with the opening card, so I absolutely want to take a walk by…
But this weekend I miss the opening, I will go to Copenhagen for some days.
Björn Westerlund shows drawings and paintings at the subject; “Nallejävel!”…
Hard to translate that title into English.




Nu på lördag, den 28 februari, är det vernissage på Kaustik!
Björn Westerlund ställer ut målningar och tekningar i utställningen Nallejävel!
Vernissagen äger rum kl. 12-16.

a day off...

A day off, and just wait and see what’s happens with my body, I felt a little bite sick today…
And as usual, I don’t have the time to be sick.

Delicious! For the moment I am looking at pieces of jewelleries that have or are made out of textiles or fabrics… I’m curios about the mix and who other has done, use the materials.
This was some good and interesting pieces and a lot of work behind.

men who hate women by Stieg Larsson...

Around seven o’clock this morning, at my stop… NOW the whole city have starting the count down for the new, BIG film about men who hate women by Stieg Larsson.
You can see it at almost all the advertising sign in the city.

I have read the three books by Stieg Larsson and I enjoy them all very much, so much that I don’t need the film. I have my own film in my head, so I don’t want to change it with something else…



this evening at Konstepidemin...

Karin Agelii, Bibbi Forsman and Claes Boman...

Camilla Engman, Karin Agelii and Anna Bärnskog...

"hard core" mingel... it was an joke from Katarina, that the mingel would be some extra ordinary...


more mingel as some kind of "speed mingel"
(as speed dating, also just an idea...), very, very nice and funny...

enough is enough!

Today I reach my number 3 in the semel - heaven… We get semlor at my work today, as dessert. NOW It’s enough!



just nonsense thought…

Just nonsense thought… I think it would be hard to ride a drawing horse, especial when you also are sketch too.

May be the thoughts goes like this when I got to many semlor at the same year, my maximal eating semlor per year is only one… and absolutely just one… and this year I am up in three semlor… Hm?!

Fettisdagen the 24th of February...


Tuesday the 24th is the “real” semla or fettisdag day in Sweden… So far I have eaten two this year, and it’s one to much.

Fettisdag means fat Tuesday... so funny... or so awful...


a day at work…

Another day at work…

Today I get to know that I can and will be working with photo at Kulturlabbet till the end of June this year. It feels right in time to have a half time (50%) right now, then I have some time for my own stuff and that could be good… It’s not so well paid, but it’s really good to know that Monday – Tuesday – Wednesday is working for money time and the rest of the week I can use for my own stuff and also take other works…
Congratulation to myself, not good for the private economy but absolutely good for my life and my creativity.

lovely patterns... fabrics from India...

---



---
My friend Mariann has been in India several times and she showed me a lot of fantastic fabrics yesterday… it was an amazing “journey” to look at these different patterns and fabrics…thinking of how much work and also love who is in these works.
It was bedspread with a lot of different patterns; small pieces added together in a amazing completeness.
















saturday evening around eight o’clock…

Yesterday I longing for bright white snow after I got the photos from my friend Katarina in Sundsvall, up in the North of Sweden and yesterday the dreams come true, it had been snowing slowly here in Gothenburg the whole Saturday, and in evening time it look like this in my neighbourhoods in Majorna. Beautiful!

It feels very much as Christmas time… silent and calm and bright white.







Saturday evening…

A nice and calm evening at my friend Marianns home, fruit pie, small talk and a cat…








in the middle of the night…

An amazing silent white walk home from my friend Mariann, it was so nice to walk in the snow by night… 00.00 o ´clock ,
