What is the last thing I do before i leave?
I update my Blog! I'm an internet junkie. Now I will leave you for a while, we are going for a 5 weeks long vacation, driving along Europe. I'll try to update a few times.
If you are in Sweden (du kanske t o m är svensk) maybe you can visit an exhibition I´m participating in. It's an exhibition with 9 women during 25 of june to 24 of july in a town called Munka Ljungby, outside Ängelholm in Skåne. The Gallery name is Pictor.
See you soon, I'll miss you.

Having a wonderful time/life part two
(Lisboa)
Ana, Hilda and Rosa.
It was fun meeting a lot of internet friends (even though some was very shy, I guess because of the language :)
I lived in Ana's and Daniel's extremely beautiful home, lots and lots of beautiful things from themselves and from their friends. They took really good care of me, they'd even put some pictures of Morran by the bed where I slept :x
If you want to see more of what we did take a look here.

Boooring
Morran's bored. Come on let's play! Come on let's go out. I try to tell her I have to work, she doesn't care a bit.
Maybe I should send her to this place.

Screenprinting
I'm still overwhelmed about yesterday! Thank you all.
I'll try to answer some of your questions. We (tiny showcase and I) haven't
talked about another print. After my Portugal trip I'll travel around
in Europe for a month or so, I will update my blog now and then. After
that, in august, there will be a new improved shop! I guess there'll
never be any Hahnemuhle-prints but some screenprints and ... just prints,
we'll see.
I've been working all day at the printworkshop on some new prints, this is one of them. It's so much fun.
Katy, another participant from Beautiful scrap paper project, has just launched a blog.
Cute things from france - Minilabo. And more children clothes from Judith Lacroix.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Thank you, so much!
What can I say, I'm speachless, but very very happy!
When I got home this evening and checked my e-mail I realized from some of the mail contents that my print sold out! I took a look at the Tiny Showcase site and .... yes, it was sold out. Can you believe that!
:) :) :D :D :D :x :x

Tomorrow's artwork
This print of mine will be for sale at Tiny Showcase, with start tomorrow evening (Rhode Island time?). The cost will be ONLY 15 US dollar and all of my proceeds I will donate to Greenpeace. Go on and shop!
They have done 50 prints printed on 310gsm acid-free Hahnemühle German Etching Paper. It's UltraChrome ink is specially treated and sprayed, giving it an archival lifespan of over 60 years. I haven't seen it yet myself but they say it looks amazing.

Mosaic
Some years ago I made this mosaic table-top, a dog of course. It took me so long time to do it so I can't put it away though we don't have space enough for it, so I put it on the wall.
I also made this little shelf, but that's all, no more mosaic in our home :) The lamp is a bear and a cat holding on to a tree.
This is not mine, it's the swedish artist Ernst Billgren, his site looks a little tiresom at first but there is lots of nice things - like this and this.
Make a mosaic pear.
