To day I sold one of my old paintings, a special one..


Thats the one, first I draw, then paint with watercolors. When dry I did some embroidery. 
I kind of liked these very much. I have 3 more to sell. 


I like the colors very much and the way they look after my embroidery. 


The paper is handmade from Tibet. I bought the paper in Sweden when 
I was there last sommar taking a class in paper making and embroidery.


This week I have not had a time to paint at all so Im adding my last post, 
hope that you dont mind. 


I have been working on my other blog, my art for sale blog,

Im on the road again......


For almost a month I have been wanting to paint something else than my Lovely Ladys and after going through all my books I got my creative back. I have been drawing, coloring, painting and painting..and painting more..


I did a few small one and then I started working on this one. This one is big A3+
The drawing came out beautiful, 4 adorable girls.


First I colored it with Neocolor.


 Then I took my favorite brush from China and went over all the details, starting with the face, then the eyes, then the hair and the clothing in the end. 


Then it was a thin white acryl paint all over the colors. 
When dried I did the outlining with pencils and my China brush again.
Then I took my Prismacolor and worked a little with each face.


When completely dry I went over all the outlines again with a black marker xf.
Now it was time to do the eyes perfect.
Im very happy with my painting but Im only half the way all the doodling and the background waiting for tomorrow to come..
Happy PPF to all of you and have a nice day.

A new one


I have been trying to paint something different from my Lovely Ladys but that has not been working. I always end up painting one more.
I think this one is a nice one, I did use modeling paste and stencil to do her dress and scarf and I think it came out very nice. So every time Im using some of the teknik Im learning from the Life Book.
Hope you all have happy PPF the 13th.

Im in love with my new Ipad...


How much fun can it be playing with your Ipad.
After I found out which app to buy Im having so much fun drawing with my Ipad and the bubble pen I bought too. 
This one was my first one.


And this one was my second one I made after I found out about how to make the painting small and big and move it around. 
Just having fun..

My exhibition


In beginning of July I was getting ready for my fifth solo exhibition.  I had to put all of my Lovely Ladys in frame and pack them and take them to the restaurant where im having my exhibition. It takes time to frame and pack 23 Ladys..


The restaurant has big walls and it took time until I was happy with all of my ladys.


July is a month of summer holidays so many people are out of town but I hope some find time to pass by and have a look.

New York summer 2012

New York summer 2012


What I love most about NY is that you never know what to except. This time there was a Yoga class on Times Square. Hundred of people doing Yoga out in the street.


This flag was outside our hotel window, not bad, I love this sign.


We did a little shopping in our favorite shop.. maybe little more than little..




And of cours I went to Micheles and did a little shopping, just little...


We saw a lot of funny people.. like these two guys having a chat on Times Square. 


And  we did eat a delicious food like this pizza at Eately...
Cant wait to go there again.
Just in love with NY..
