boxes

This is how much art supplies I'm bringing to London. It's taken some time to decide what to bring and some squeezing to get the stuff into the boxes. The boxes are not very big. I'm making a big effort to go for minimal and being organized. This doesn't come naturally for me though.
Yet.

not so focused

every day I walk by this painting - I'm dying to add that final touch to it. But I have to wait. I have so may to do-lists that I made a to do-list for the to do-lists. But I'm not the only one moving away to start over; Kristi is changing Portland, Oregon for Zürich. I move in a month, she'll move in a week. It will be interesting to follow our parallel paths.

I work day and night right now with the arranging and preparing so I'll (cross your fingers) get the time to make a big enamel triptych and three new screenprints at KKV before I move. That also means there will be less posts here. Probably.

back from London

a week of apartment-hunting is over.
a week of walking many streets
a week of splendid French hospitality and food staying at friends' place
a week of seeing shitty apartments and finally finding one that will do.

The top photo is the view from our friends' place - doesn't it look kind of French?.

In London

I'm seeing apartment after apartment outside central London (zone 3). I can't upload any photos, so I'll save that until Thursday when I'll be back in Sweden.

another children's book sketch...

tomorrow I'm off to London for a week to find an apartment. I'll still try to be here though - Internet is everywhere!

Transit

I'm in transit. Moved out, but still not in my new place. I'm staying in my mother's house. I have had no time to put on my work - until now: half past ten on Friday night. I'll try to locate pen and paper.

Have a nice weekend!

for better and for worse

More goodbyes to my apartment (my home since 2002).

This coming weekend is going to be the last one in my apartment. So - I'm saying goodbye.

disorganized collection

Ah. These things you save being an artist.

I have a whole collection of "white walls" that I cut away in the good old days before digital cameras. The photos were of my art pieces and I was amused by how the surrounding white walls "changed" depending on the dominant colour of the art piece. So I saved what I cut away. I planned to - one day - make a white wall patch work style.

This disorganized collection of white walls went to the garbage today. Camilla on the other hand has her organized collections. She even started an organized collection pool. I could pretend and try to participate - but my collections are utterly disorganized...
