LP-flower and Microcosmos

Click image to enlarge!

LP-flower
This is painted on an LP-disc. A black background and then I too a chain with white color to create the "frame" In the center I added a few colored paint spots and used a balloon to create the flower.

This is the Microcosmos shell from last week. Yesterday I noticed on my balcony this piece of birch bark and placed the shell on it. Now I think this is how my "Microcosmos" is complete :)

Universe and Transformation of field

Click image to enlarge!

Micro cosmos - Mikrokosmos
In August there will be an exhibition in my town where every local artist can attend with three pieces. The theme is Micro Cosmos. I have created two small pieces so far. The shell is 12x12 cm and the canvas 12x18 cm.
I´m unsure which way to turn it. I created it as the lower one but my daughter sais it shall rotate to the upper one. What do you think? I would like the input.

Below I decided to share how some things evolve when I work

This is a field hole, I think they call it, where my daughter lives.

Next step: channel mix1 o gradient map
Liked this one so I decided to try to paint it

So, here it is: the Field hole as painting on canvas. Acrylic 20x30 cm
I was using a roller, pencil and a water spray bottle. I liked the little dots created by the water.
Has very little in common with the original, right?

Circles and Reusable things

Click image to enlarge!

Circled Owl
As I found the Instagram challenge with circles I thought I should try.
This was created om an A5 paper using glittering, metallic gel pens of sort. When I took the photo I tilted the paper slightly to be able to capture the glow.

Button Tree, Canvas20x30 cm
I had a litle left of the thick medium, and the circle challenge ctill going. So how to do this? I like white trees so I cerated a "lake" and a tree. This is obvously a flowering tree. :) I had some buttons in a drawer and created flowers with them. I think it is fun! :)

Memories! Canvas 30x40cm
Not sure what to name this! Any suggestions?
I was selling some chairs and this delicate shawl was hanging on it. It belonged to my mother and I wanted to keep in in some way. It also suited the circle challenge. I put it down on a white canvas while working. Then it hit me. I fasten it on the canvas and draped it to create the center and then used one of the buttons for a color point. I photographed this piece on a black canvas not to spoil the shape of the surrounding shawl.

Colors of life

Acrylic on 30x40 canvas
As I have acrylic paint I wanted to play around with it. I had seen something on Youtube I wanted to try. But of course, my work took it´s own path. It´s not even close to what I started with :)

My Circled Universe

One sketch and painting on carbon paper, and 2 pours, one on canvas the other on an LP record, combined in Photoshop

White tempera on black canvas 20x20cm

Emotional meltdown - Känslomässig härdsmälta
Grained paper A5

One morning at breakfast my brain presented me with "Emotional meltdown" Two days later I tried to paint it. I used only three colors, Black,red,yellow which I think represent a quick destruction. Which was proved in Paris this week. :(

The Seesaw - Gungbrädan

Canvas 20x20cm
This happend as I had the decoration gravel and the white Seesaw. I had some troubble with the thick paint but finally I got it too work.

Happy Easter! - Glad Påsk!

Earlier in life I always painted my Easter eggs with tiny chickens. Thought I´ll do it this year too even if I had no guests :)

Testing shopping and having fun

Click image to enlarge!

The wave!
I tested some homemade think pasta. Sadly it is cracking so I used the blue paint "water" to glue it. Seem to work but it is rather fragile. Was thinking of adding a white tree but changed my mine. I like it as it is. A very small canvas 12x18 cm

The beach!

Teh otehr day I was shopping! They have set up a DOLLARSTORE in my town and this was my first visit. I found the little black canvas above and the DECORglas, in the shell, and bought them. Also used remains of the pasta in the beach. And, giggling, the sand was once collected by my mother in Teneriffa :)

The red beam! 20x20 canvas
This was mainly a failiure. I tested to work with stencils and straith lines with helo of tape. My mistake was I covered the canvas with tooo much black paint. The surface is slippery. That is why the paint looks dotted. Like oil it was drawn to puddles insted of an even surface.
Well, I got the idea and learned from it :)

For the rainbow challenge I remembered an image from the beginning of blogging. Luckily I had named it rainbow so I could find it. I combined it with a UV-lit curtain image I took 2 weeks ago.
I don´t remember what happened to the pot as I don´t have it anymore :(
