Edits

It's an endless process of editing. Hope to print out monday. I've had some problems finding a suitable paper. Found some Schollenhammer in my drawing cabinet so I will try those.

Upcomimg Exhibition

I'm back in the studio working on drawings for an exhibition. The show is "(H)är II" at Kalmar Konstmuseum. Nov 27 2010 - Feb 27 2011.

It's curated by Malin Nilsson, Kim Einarsson och Anna Norberg.

Malin and I have chosen ten frames from Dogs. These are pretty loose pencils so I'm trying to tighten up.

.

Other participating artists are Ingela Johansson, Nina Svensson and Conny Karlsson.

Ai Weiwei at Tate Modern

I spent last week in London and I was looking forward to see Ai Weiwei's installation of Sunflower Seeds in the turbine hall. Unfortunately, due to health issues, the public was not allowed to walk on the installation. So what happens?

People are kneeling along the edges of the installation. Using the seeds to create messages, pictures and patterns. Beautiful!

Cherry Blossom, Done

Today I could finally, with help from trusted friend Sten B, install the Cherry Paintings at Hanemålaskolan, Nybro.

And this two weeks ahead of deadline. The paintings have actually been finished for over a month. Except canvas nr. 5. I repainted the background on that one just two days ago. I was never really happy with it but now it looks as it should.

Sten in action. I actually had started to fasten it to the wall before we noticed our mistake.

As you can see the library is not finished yet.

Watercolor

I just recieved this beautiful painting, NYC Roof Tops, by watercolor artist Siv Spurgeon. Siv is a relative of mine and she and her husband Gene visited me at Juniper Hill earlier this summer.

You can see more of Sivs work at http://www.sivspurgeon.com/

Close to finish?

Cherry Blossom

The flowers are taking shape. Gray comes in a lot of different shades, definitely my favourite colour.

New Project

I've been working on this for quite a while now. Only now I actually started painting. Thanks

S. T. for the great shots from my studio today.
