Tattooed..?

Sketching on a tattoo for a friend..

And I just can't stop thinking about what my next tattoo is going to be or look like! I have a lot of ideas.. but one at a time, I guess.. I just have to make up my mind about which one I'll do first. 

Deadline Silhouettes

In school we have been working with silhouettes. We got an assignment to do some pictures based on allegements. The deadline is today. It's going to be fun to look at the work of my classmates, and get feed-back on my own pictures. And also to hear if they're true.. or false!

"The electric chair was invented by a dentist"

TRUE!

"In USA absent-minded men can buy a zipper that beeps if they have forgotten to zip up after they've been to the toilet.

TRUE!

Viva La Tulipa!

Tulips - a sign of spring for me, and this time a year you can get them in all kind of different shapes and coulours. I think that especially this coulour and together with the anemones in the same tone, makes a beautiful flower bouquet. Very simple and elegant.

A touch of classic comics

I need my inspiration at home.

By decorating with comics I get a fun, colourful style and at the same time a reminder of my love to comic books.

It makes my imagination run wild and I get new ideas all the time. More people should let comics into their lives and appreciate the work from the artist and the thrills it can give you!



Mother Nature Friendly T-shirt

I saw this t-shirt and I knew I just had to buy it..

Tshirt Store has a lot of cool and different t-shirts, fantastic prints and good quality. Also the material is 100% organic cotton and it's Fairtrade certified. So if you're looking after a t-shirt with a WOW-effect, look no more - just check out their website.

My new Olive Tree

The window in the kitchen needed a pick-me-up, so I bought an olive tree. (They say that an olive tree can live up to 1500 years, not that my tree will last that long. But one can always hope..) And then I planted my small cactuses in the same pot and just decorated with some small stones.

I'm longing for spring, and now my kitchen window feels green and fresh - just what I needed! 

THE CLOWN

Right now I'm thinking about doing a Circus or Carneval story,

but first I'm gonna work on the characters. That's the fun part..!

Celebration & Graduation

My friend has graduated as a nurse, so this week-end has been filled with celebration with good friends, good food and good drinks.

I put together and gave her this flower bouquet

and of course with a personal touch to the card.

"Conserving and using water wisely!"

I found a Canadian environmental site, that had good information about what you can do for the environment.

"Individuals can do something about conserving and using water wisely!" -was a list that everyone should read and just do the things that everyone can do in their own home.  

Here are a few of the "DOs and DON'Ts":

*Keep a bottle of drinking water in your refrigerator instead of running your tap until the water gets cool each time you want some water. Do not forget to rinse the container and renew the water every two to three days.

*When brushing your teeth, turn the water off while you are actually brushing instead of running it continuously. Then use the tap again for rinsing and use short bursts of water for cleaning your brush. (This saves about 80% of the water normally used.)

*Take short showers – turn off the water while you are soaping and shampooing and then rinse off quickly.

Modern Fairytale - Little Red Wolf

  I call it "Little Red Wolf"
I got inspired to take a classic fairytale, with a modern twist.
But maybe less suitable for children, this one...

Bye Bye Christmas.. enough is enough!

Nu ska julen städas bort! Tack för denna gång..! Alltid lika mysigt att klä granen, julpynt här och där, julbak osv.. men nu får det vara nog! Välkommen åter..!

Till höger om min lilla tomte i snöglob från Nääsgränsgården står ett Kobo-ljus. I en snygg box/ask, ett ekologiskt soya-ljus med underbar doft.. Älskar de här ljusen plus att de skadar inte miljön och är skonsamma för allergiker!)

Work in progress...

A school assignment - We're supposed to use an urban legend as a subplot to the mainplot. My mainplot is about a girl who wants success at any price, and she tries to achieve that trough competing in "Masterchef" and she failes miserably.. and she learns the truth.. the hard way! Trough the brilliant but a bit too straight forward Gordon Ramsay's true yet cruel words..

A lot of fun, but time consuming..! The story is ready, all I need to do now is ink the whole 8 pages..
