Little bit of everything

 Click image to enlarge!
Dancing on the wall
This is a photo of a stone wall where I added manipulated copies of the ballet dancer I cut out a few weeks ago. I think this will be a personal favorite 💝



The two pieces above: As my walls are full I am now trying to paint more om paper. I think it works quite well. The paper you can save in a file and don´t have to dust them. But I still have a few canvases that is not painted.

This is the same painting as above but I added some Glow for Rains challenge. 

Glowing swan for Rain


Only my reflection and my young Barbie self left in the Exhibition.

A dream
Tempera on Watercolor paper. A4

A few days ago I had a dream that surprised me completely. "Normally" when I dream I have to struggle to get our of it. You know, that kind of "failure" dreams. This dream was different. Nothing really happened more then the image shares. But it was a soft and warm dream so this time I struggled to continue the dream.The "souls" was softer then I managed to do. They did not touch. I tried to visualize the mood. One on paper, the little one is a canvas.

My exhibition in the library. My paintings and my sisters dolls.

Sisters!
This is my sisters work. The doll to the left is my sister and the one beside her in the coat is me.
My sister designed and sew the cloths and hairstyle we actually had at that time in our lives. This is the first time I could convince her to share them on the exhibition. And, people loves all of them. 😄



Flowers frozen in ice
 For Rains Jagged and Ice. The ice is the same, the difference is the light and position.

Transformation and exhibition

 Click image to enlarge!
Transformation!
This is a small image that I found online and worked with in Photoshop.
It is in the eyes of the viewer if she turns from light to darkness or the other way around.

 Dark angel in red.   Painted on CARBon black paper.

These two was created from anger really. I sometimes have dreams I don´t want to dream and I get, well, angry. Many times I am able to get myself out of the dreams but not this time. So I created Black angels to help out, even if one ended up red. And, looks like a troll.  😁

Another change will be next Wednesday in the Library. I will set up another exhibition and this is the layout of the first of the two screens I will use.

Not sure why but it seems like people don´t know they can book this place free of charge to share what they want. Lately it has been empty and this time I was told they had 5 empty weeks unbooked after New Year. I booked 2,5 weeks. So, now I hope they find somebody who wants it after me.
