just something…

A small painting or as I call my paintings; to drift colour and see what’s coming up…
I have no plans I just do and then the creature pop up and started to live they own life in the environment that show up…

it doesn’t look so tasty but it okay and no animal need to suffering under the knife…

Vegan bacon, isn’t it amazing what the food industrial come up with?!

Sometimes the development goes forward. We don’t need animal for the taste of animal, we can use Soya and other vegetable-based products to do food.

GIFF...

The Gothenburg International Film Festival, GIFF is going against the end for this time/year…
Glitter and glamour is a memory merely.

typical Gothenburg humour…

This is hard to explain but if you live here or visit the town you will find example of this kind of signs that appeal to the Gothenburg spirit and humorousness. I like it a lot but it’s also very “cheap” and a easy going punch line, it’s always with the glimpse in the eye…

This is a sign for a candy store…

misguided advertising…

I saw this on my walk today and I didn’t felt that it was the thing I want to do, to be in a solarium and get blue, that’s a feeling you get when the rain is sprinkle down…

Nordhemsgatan… a nice house and shoes on a string…

...


rip...

Me and a dead crow, that’s life…or…

findings...

A naked doll on a mountain shelf… you can find almost everything when you are out walking…

Lisa Björke...


I got this cut from a friend…

Sometimes is it so obvious that we live and act in a crazy world…

This is a text (sorry, in Swedish) about our new party in the Swedish cabinet of ministers, the ultra right party Sverige Demokraterna, SD.
Here has someone write about the song that the members of the party used when the party got vote into the government, they sing Sha-la-la-la-la and this is a traditional children song from Jamaica - Brown girl in the ring-, the pop group Boney M also sings this song…

This is very very stupid and funny at the same time, the ultra right party, Sverige Demokraterna want to have a Sweden without any citizen from foreign lands… They can’t see that multiplicity enriches our society and that we get a richer country if we have multiplicity.

How is it possible to take this kind of party for seriousness? When they have no clue what they chose to use…

Per Oscarsson... one time our way cross...

The year 2010 ending in a tragedy for one of my favourite Swedish actors Per Oscarsson and his wife, they died in a house fire the night before the New Years Eve… 31of December.
(Skådespelaren Per Oscarsson, 83 och hustrun Kia Östling, 67, dog i branden natten till nyårsafton.)

http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per_Oscarsson
Sometimes your ways are crossing someone else way, 1989 I meet Per Oscarsson at Angerds Teatern here in Gothenburg, he had invited me and my friend personally to the play "En handelsresandes död / Death of a Salesman " by Arthur Miller, Per Oscarsson play the character Loman in the play.

My friend had met Per Oscarsson on the train from Stockholm to Gothenburg and they started to talk and one thing lead to another and swish, I was apart of the story too… For me this was a great meeting I had admire Per Oscarsson for a long time and to me him and shake his hand and see he act was big, I admire him after this meeting too and I think he was and is a great actor, one of the biggest in Sweden in fact, that’s my opinion.

wow! Pepperminta by Pipilotti Rist at GIFF…

Today I saw the Pipilotti Rist film Pepperminta at Gothenburg Film Festival, a lovely colourful and energy kicked film, it was like some kind of vitamin injection this grey January. It was (as always when it comes to Pipilotti Rist works) inspirited, colourful, funny and thoughtful.

I have to recommend it, IF you have the opportunity to see it, do it!

I want to see it again and again, it was so many things to look at, so I know for sure that I miss a lot of all the nice, playful and absolutely lovely interiors. Pipiplotti Rist is a true maximalist I think.

Here you can see parts of it and also hear Pipilotti Rist lecture about her work.
It took her 4 years to do this film…

let a new year begin…

...

some pics from the Christmas time, “last” year…

The Christmas in my patents home and with my sister and her child was a good moment in good company and good food and a calm time with a lot of animals in the garden and the lovely Sigge a 10 months Main coon cat indoors, some times up in the North of Sweden with all the beautiful snow that sparkling as thousand and thousand diamonds in the moonlight in the nighttimes you believe that you are some where else, may be in some kind of dream… I had a great time and it past very very quick; I haven’t the opportunity this time to see my friends over a coffee…but may be some other time?!

hi you!

I hope you ALL had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I’m still here even if I haven’t post anything this year, yet…

My first weeks this year has been to think, to make plans for the future and see if I can and will post old things from the year that has past, I think that 2010 was a great year, it happen a lot and I felt comfortable with the most of all the things I had done…
The most important stuff that I have been doing these weeks is to find structures for the future and calm down and find a way that is good for me in a longer distance…

I hope I will post a lot of new interesting post at my blog this year, but I also think that I will lie back a little and see what’s coming up…

I wish you all a great start at the new 2011 and I hope it will be field up with a lot of good and interesting things. Keep up the work and enjoy life!

The next thing here in Gothenburg is the international Film festival that starts in the end of the week. http://www.giff.se/

it’s hard to not making things…

I create a necklace with four bracelets in; this was a New Year Eve present for the five small girls that I celebrate my New Years Eve with… My niece Tova got the necklace and her friends get the bracelets.

It was children, dogs, cats and adults in a very nice mix this last New Years Eve.

delivered by the mailman in Christmas time…

Thank you very much Joanne and Maja for your lovley gifts, it so nice to know that you both know that the seahorse is one of my favourite animals and also some kind of totem for me.

I get touched about your thoughts and the other things that you sent to me to, the nice mitten and the lovely small nice smelling home cooked gingerbread...

Thank you!

This is Christmas cards by e-mail…
