Trying to create..

..various expressions in a simple way I have been working in putty recently. Super imposing calligraphy and turning them into pictures. This one I call: "Illiteracy". It is funny to see how a little kneading of the putty lump can turn out to express a sentiment. Any sentiment I guess, if you are skilled. Which of course I am not!

 "Ma chère Maison" I made with a putty baby. It tries to express the dangers of growing up and leaving a golden cocoon of the womb - the little guy on the water colour on top is lured into someting evil in a threatening, dark world..

 The putty is the type that hardens like porcelain.

"On top of things" I made a few years ago shows my fascination of lighthouses! I found this used billboard on the garbage dump - so it´s really a recycling project..

Now, we´re talking..

Hints of summer today at Gotland. Doors are open to the garden..

Blue, blue all over..The sun is almost hot. One can almost hear the growth of the trees and the flowers..

And all the birds are going crazy! I have a beautiful pheasant couple living in the garden. I am starting to learn bits of their pheasant language: the warning sounds, sounds of love, of joy. I tried to take some pictures of them jumping around in the snow last winter. But no. They are too shy and watchful, these pheasants!

The barn in the evening sun.

Even the figures on the neighbouring Lummelunda church frieze looked happy in the sun. I am a bit curious just to know what they are up to. They really look a bit mischievous!
