The Soul Boat is now finished. I added beads and cushions. I’m now ready to sail into a parallel world. Play Video After a few attempts at painting a little scene on a round piece of watercolour paper, I must accept the magic is missing. The cutout and collage technique is the only way for me. I will take a break and concentrate on the digital painting which I keep neglecting, I’m not sure why… perhaps, I get distracted by the sight of all my colored pencils, pens, inks, etc, on my working table, it is indeed a very attractive sight… I ordered a few basic tools for quilling, I would like

I made a little harp for the boat. It will have to go on the roof, too big for the deck. But it’s allright, it will be nice to play up there surrounded by plants and seagulls. With Dragon. Play Video Four videos! This weather is incredible. Fortunately, the vegetation here seems to be enjoying it. I’ve never seen it growing so high. Play Video Play Video Play Video Play Video

Figure head finished, I just have to add some beads. She is detachable, so I can create copies of her but with different clothes/moods. I still have many things I want to add to the boat. I’m glad it’s not over yet. Play Video I freshened up my blog. I solved all the little bugs, trashed many things and established a good base. I can now just add things and reorganise some more but there is no rush. That was my gardening for this year! I know it’s quite dense but I’m not known for my minimalist tendencies, ha!ha!ha! It’s absolutely not mobile phone friendly but it’s all right, there’s Facebook to

I think I neglected my blog because it’s bugging, and it’s becoming increasingly complicated, I just don’t have that kind of time. It is very frustrating when after each update, the customisations you had made just turn into something else. Working on this blog can be so time consuming and expensive. I even considered quitting. Now, I’m not sure. I will think about it. This was taken today. The last sunny day was perhaps one month ago, so today was very much appreciated. With the girls, we even lingered, laying down in the long grass. But it’s still quite cool, merely 8 degrees. Play Video I’m working on a 3D paper Soul

Play Video Today, we went on a little adventure to Nusfjord Some time ago, we went to Mærvoll, another very special place. Play Video Some little friends …?? Cernunnos, Baba Yaga, Kitsune and friends Play Video I finished a little diorama on a theme which has always fascinated me: the universe. The Inktense pencils were quite challenging, it will take me a while to get the hang of it. I also used colored pencils to enhance since it is difficult to get smooth results with Inktense. I’m thinking of my next diorama and I just have too many ideas. Maybe I’ll make two, simultaneously. A small one about a Dream lab (with

Play Video Happy New Year! This is my Snow Dragon diorama. It’s been so much fun playing with ink pads, stencils, embossing powders, fineliners, colored pencils, watercolor pens, texture paste, and of course loads of glitter of many sorts! The good thing is that the diorama is easy to store flat, so that I can create many more and change the one on display according to my mood/season.
