Farmor træder i karakter ..... eller Strik til LilleStrik


En babykyse i farveskiftende Kauni
dvs ren uld


En lille tunika eller kjole
i ren uld
hjembragt fra SydAmerika
af min ældste nevø

LækkertLækkert
blødt og naturfarvet

Strikket oppefra og ned
har strikket den sammen foran så den er samlet
har også ændret det oprindelige hulmønster
ikke bevidst
mere 
mine hænder valgte selv hvad der skulle strikkes
nemlig brombærmønstret

Den facon kan gerne gentages
og variereres utallige gange

A snowboat to ...... or the Sound of a flying goose


.... China ... maybe , maybe not
It showed up when all the gras 'died'


Its my foreyard 
an open snow-see
with waves of grass




The water is frozen
except were its running from land
Normally here are a lot of ducks and gooses
but they flew when the dogs and I arrived
The sound of a bunch of flying ducks and gooses
are magical
I can hear them inside my house
both them talking and flying
I do like that a lot more than the sound of cars

To be or not to be.... with other words


For some time I have wondered
how words form us

The way Im talking and thinking about myself 
makes me to whom I am - partly

Therefore I have denied very hard 
that I AM sick
I dont want to BE sick
thats makes me feel awfull
To be sick is for me
to have the flue, to have cancer

I was thinking that my diseases are more like
having a function-failure
and not have the parts to replace the notfunctionel

After a discussion with a friend
makes  me think
that the difference in words
are 
TO HAVE 
or 
TO BE 
sickness/sick

I HAVE a disease
I AM not sick

Do this make sense?

The ultimate luxus and elegance .... or only the best for my first granchild ....


When I return from Greenland last year
where I have visit my family in Nuuk
I brought the most wonderful yarn with me in suitcase 

The very big hairy and a little bit ugly and scary
but proud muskoxe
have a very warm, brown and soft fur
from which they make yarn spun by one thread


Im knitting the original Shetland Hap-shawl 
in Denmark called The whole Kingdom
because  our first prinse born to be our future king
was swept in this shawl when his christen name was given
Prince Christian

I use one thread muskoxe and one thread kid-silk-mohair
and its going to be like an angels wing
and when my first granchild is to big
her mum can were it

I have made several of these shawl
and just love it

This shawl will be the ultimative LUXUS

What is a COLLAGE ... or ColourCollage


To make collages its important to have a DEFINITION or an UNDERSTANDING - at least for one self.

Just leaving the atelier Im thinking I have a rather wide definition of collage

Wikipedia says:
Collage (From the Frenchcoller, to glue, French pronunciation: ​[kɔ.laːʒ]) is a technique of art production, primarily used in the visual arts, where the artwork is made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole.Read more here

Looking at my results from today
I havent use a lot of glue
today
its not visible 
but is there hide by the painting

I have used the 'paperlinnen' I made before christmas
as background for 3 of them
postcard for the rest

As different elements I used 
4 colours
 musicnodes
ink

I have to decide which colour I shall choose 
black or white
for the background
and 
the frame ...
That is not my best

It ended up to be 

 9  Music-Colours-Collages

with leftovers-colour from christmas
purple, red and gold
and the black dark weather in january
the black ink
and
music from both


This year this year .... or 365 days of challenge


I have joined Hanna
who blogs about creativity
She often makes 'events' where its possible to  participate
This time its a 'big' challenge -for me -
365 days of creativity
or creativity every day


I have joined 
and here are my 'rules' fore the year

I want to make  collages
in my book
- where theese are from -
on postcards-size
or other 'things'
just have to be collage

I dont have to finish one every day
it is OK just to preparing to make them
backgrounds quote and so on
example for finish them in the weekend




I am curious for which effect it will have to be thinking in creativity every day

Will my skills grow?
Can I do it?

Well at least I can try!

Happy day to you

Back on track ..... and Love exchange


For a time the painting has been paused
the atelier didnt call at me
and got more and more messy

Now I can feel the needs for painting again.

This is the first ....
attempt

Molotow and  Posca markers

This year is concentrating
about LOVE
in many ways

Love to life
Love to God
Love to people ...
.. and to myself

This picture
is called
Love-exchange
