An Art Work A Day

Have had a wonderful day celebrating my daughter's birthday today. She turned 21 on the 13th but could not visit before now due to studies and work

Today I have been doing something very necessary but which I tend to postpone and postpone and postpone. I have been sorting through papers and receipts and all kinds of reference materials in short all the papery mess that seem to grow exponentially if you do not keep it down regularly. I am a bit proud of myself because I have even defrosted the freezer. hehehe

Tomorrow I plan on doing a much needed sorting and tidying in the basement. There are boxes and bags and similar all over the place with art or art materials. I really need to get a better system.

The weather is still grey grey grey but I went for a walk nevertheless. Well done me. Been very good with diet too.

It is way past midnight here in Norway and I have been working like mad on a project using photographs I took this summer of tiny insects outdoors.

I can't wait for it to becoem the weekend. The colours of nature locally this week has been light grey, foggy kind of light grey, no colours or contrasts and not mystical either - just GREY -

These days I fell kind of numb. there are so many long term ideas and possibilities in my head that I do not really know where it will all lead. I do know however that the future will in some way have me combining text and images, maybe even sound as my expression. Right now I have too many ideas and projects in my head and on my pc to really be able to focus on one path. I do not worry - it will be nice to have excess materials to chose from when the time is right for me to be focused again. This is not only about what to do but also who I am - What is my identity and how will it evolve as I dare to let mroe people read my texts and see my works?

This weekend I have been working on a book idea where I at present consider using non figurative abstracts like this as the illustrations. It is still very much on the layout planning stage.

Today came with the perfect Sunday weather. The sun was shining and the sky was blue when I was out walking. It is beautiful with all the snowcovered trees but I must admit I long for some colour now.
