Weather, creating fog on the window may not belong to the favorites, but the mist often create beautiful patterns on the windows. When the sun once again appears, windows can look like shimmering paintings. I tried using colored paper and light pastels to paint fog on the window. The result you see here. Väder, som… Continue reading Misty window
Our most photographed object in Trosa archipelago. A lighthouse-place we call "Julafton" wich is X-mas eve in english. The legend tells that shipwrecked were nearby and got rescued, one Christmas eve and since then, the lighthouse is called Julafton (Christmas eve). In this painting it is winter as you can see 😉 Anna
City edge in pastels on colored paper. I call the painting "stadkant" in swedish, which in english means selvedge. But in swedish it can also mean city edge. This painting is not so difficult to achieve. Find a colored paper, some pastel crayons, and start drawing squares in different colors. Then, you do the… Continue reading City edge/Stadkant

To measure time. Can we actually measure time? Here I have drawn an hourglass, which will be measured. So it is possible to measure time 🙂 Att mäta tid. Kan vi egentligen mäta tid? Här har jag ritat ett timglas, som blir mätt. Så visst går det att mäta tid 🙂 Anna
Here's some pastel paintings which in I have used one color scale at the time. Bluelight I began with, then moved on to red light, yellow light and finally green light. The blue light kind of refers to sirens, the red, yellow and green light to trafficlights. Här kommer prov på pastellövningar där jag koncentrerat… Continue reading Colorful light/färgade ljus

Här kan ni se… Continue reading Something borrowed, part 2

I did a "cover" on a painting a friend of mine did and discovered how fun it was to interpret other painters paintings in my own way. Not to copy them, just lend the motive and the paint it in… Continue reading Something borrowed, part 1
But I'm very happy that the snow is gone now 🙂 Anna
...but I have one more painting of the bridge I going on and on, about 😉 It is a small bridge that leads to a little island, where a few hundred people live. In the 1950s I think it was, there was no bridge. People back then, took the rowing boats to their island destination.… Continue reading You wont believe it…
