Texture

texture2

A rhubarb-leaf made eternal by concrete. Steady but yet fragile, forever captured.

I am thinking about framing this piece actually. When I close my eyes I see it hanging in a huge white frame  on top of my bed, as a symbol of strength in life.

By the way folks, I have made an important decision today. I am going to start selling my work. Anyone interrested?

Something new

shoes

These beautiful shoes have I welcomed to my collection today. Notice the bow. Bows make everything so much better.

I look forward to many easy summer nights wearing these..

A room with a view

room

It’s empty now, except for the dusty memories that somebody left behind. The silence is overtaking and the walls are moving closer as if to squeese the mere life out me so I can’t enjoy the view.

Enjoying summer

Hey folks! We have been experiencing some REALLY hot days here lately and I have been spending most them down by the beach, thereof my lack of posts.

What’s on the menu

macka

middag

paj

Dear friends! Today it’s midsummer and I have spent it with family and good friends. I wanted to describe for you what a midsummer’s meal may look like here in my corner of the world. This is typical for our family:

The first course: dark bread with a sour cream mix with herring, red onions, dill, chopped eggs and spawn. It’s delious and starts off a meal perfectly!

The main dish: barbequed beef, garlic bread, tzatsiki with feta and garlic, grilled halloumi with a chili dressing, fresh potatoes and a grilled tomato half. We also served a sallad on the side with watermelon and roasted seeds on top.

The dessert: caramel pie with whipped cream and powdered cacao on top. We decorated it with some colourful violets.

I hope you all have had a lovely midsummer’s eve <3

Be safe!

A thing or two about eating

thepal

This little fellow eating dandelions on the lawn is my cousin’s little pal!

- Oh man..here she is again with that camera, is it really THAT hard to not follow me around all the time… I can’t even have my own dinner in peace! I’ll get her..

Some folks just don’t like being harassed during dinner.. Shame on me :P

Summer shot

bäh

I wish that I too could lay around in the grass all day, watching the birds and their play, listening to the wind…just devote the day to mere and utter relaxation..

..maybe tomorrow.

The sky burned

onfire

I stopped here on top of the hill, the sun was setting and it was almost midnight. I stood here for the longest of time, it felt like hours. It was so quiet, so still. The tears felt like acid down my cheeks as I thought of you, they burned just like the evening sky.

Beyond reality

gren

Drifting away, far beyond reality. Soaring among fantasy flowers and trees that watch my every move. I am safe nowhere, the hills have eyes and I am lost in this foreign city that doesn’t even have a name.

Oblivion

 båthus

spik

Let’s follow me to the land of oblivion where we can start anew.

What a relief it would be to leave all this madness, the look in peoples eyes, the judging, the silent whispers that nobody think I hear. Oblivion could be such a heavenly state if we went.

Shot taken last night in a nearby church. I loved the light in this scene and couldn’t resist.

It is a special feeling to sit near the ceiling this way, God feels closer.

Me and the mudlark children


Midnight and a
quiet field in the
middle of nowehere
the rain smells sweet
almost like you

I lie on wet grass with my
face turned upward
the motelsign flickers
somwhere in the distance
can see it in the corner of
my eye

I am alone here, just me and
the sounds of the city, some mudlark
children and
my ego

if I linger out here long enough
maybe I'll remain sane

La vie e rose

lavierose

A rose in full bloom.

The water looks smooth as honey as the sun sets. I wish you all could have been here on this still and beautiful night.

Porcelain

porcelain

A colorful porcelain-flower has been my object for the day.

Deep

deep

Every night the same, the aching, the burning, love’s madness is slowly putting my mind out of track. I am headed for a crash like no other, being tossed out into the everlasting darkness with only my glowing heart as a torch. Will you come?

He gives and he takes

give

Our lord works in mysterious ways.

A child is gone, taken back, given wings. Dear little girl, you who could light up a whole room with your smile, be safe and sleep softly beneath gods sheltering arms. We’ll meet again, I swear.

He gives and he takes. Why, nobody knows. I wish you didn’t have to go.

It fades

redhouse

A house that shows it’s faded reflection in the lake.

It almost reminds of one of Monet’s paintings, the one with the water-lilys. That type of painting that when you stand too close you can’t see but take a couple of steps back and the lilys are more than visible, they are alive. This house also need a couple of steps back.
