Can we become friends? watercolour on paper 20x29cm

0 comments Posted by Trine at 6:40 pm

Every day in the news we see people fighting and killing their former neighbors in civil wars around the globe. Some people think it is natural that people from different etnical, political or religious backgrounds should fight each other.
 
Fortunately there is also wonderful change to the better in the news. Yesterday during the big Europride parade in Oslo, the capital of Norway, a large group of police joined the parade, not only to support any LGBT police officers but also as a way of symbolizing the massive change from only a few decades ago when they were criminalized and hunted by the police. Being gay was sometimes like a cat and mouse game with the police. Now the police states they are the protectors.   http://www.europride2014.com/?lang=nb/ 
 
Today's painting expresses my hope that even relationsships that look impossible can sometimes be possible.

8.3.2013 Sometimes Love is Doing It Together - Watercolor on paper 21x30cm

0 comments Posted by Trine at 8:38 pm

Today, the 8th of March - The International Women's Day I want to celebrate what women can do working together. There is still a few very important things to left to fight for or against like FGM, childbrides, forced marriages, and the feat...uscide or infanticide in areas where only boychildren has any value. Let's work together for our sisters around the world.

3.2013 Sometimes Love is a Social Thing - Watercolor on paper 21x30cm

0 comments Posted by Trine at 2:58 pm

I am working as a teacher for 12-16 year olds and now that spring is coming there is a lot of love starting to grow. At that age love is not only a very personal thing but a social thing, especially in some girl groups who discuss every aspect of the relationships starting or ending or possibly becoming. What he said and she said and did and how to make him see her etc not to mention if two girls wants the same boy or one steals one... Lots of thoughts and emotions and time being put into it.

Today I have both needed a friend and got support, and been needed and given support. What would we do without the love of friends?

As most of us know, being three girls together poses some challenges and way too often one of them is not totally included. This known sosial challenge has inspired todays simplistic drawing

New Friendship Despite Differences, watercolour size A4

1 comments Posted by Trine at 9:54 pm

Before I left last night I had a bit of a wait before my taxi arrived at 3.0 a.m. Fortunately I met a couple of nice young Norwegian men arriving back at the hostel after a night of celebratin Barca's 4-1 victory over Arsenal. We started to chat and talked about their work at a part of the Norwegian Space program and how that program has some educational programs for teachers.

Age and other differences does not matter much when people meet and discuss common interests or experiences like the Sangrada Familia which had impressed those men totally.



New Friendship Despite Differences,
watercolour
size A4

This painting was double mounted and framed (was in exhibition) and as such difficult and expensive to post internationally. Contact me if you are still interested for price and possible dismantling

Arriving home was not very joyous, The travelling itself took a bit more than 10 hours so I was tired and meeting a grey grey day with way too much snow and ice still left was not very uplifting. Luckily the coming weekend is supposed to be nice.

Wishful thinking today in my painting since I have spent all of today correcting and grading essays and tests since I am 100% sure that will be among the very first things some of my students will ask tomorrow morning.
