Merry Christmas

It's been a busy fall and start of winter for me. I turned 50 (!) in September, and spent the day in London with my family. My husband and I took our annual trip to California in October. Now I'm preparing for Christmas, which we will spend at home in Fredrikstad.

Here are some of my paintings from September till now.

Happy holidays everyone!

  Gjøre salt til søtt og varmt til kaldt

  Når elva blir for stri

  Og tar for mange bråe svinger

  Skulle jeg ønske Gud hadde 

  Skapt meg med sommerfuglvinger"

Spring update

Creativity has been in full bloom these past months. 
My butterfly collection is growing fast, new bee paintings and feathers have also seen the light.
The last month I’ve been preparing for an exhibition the gallery has been invited to attend in April.
So I must admit I’ve been so busy I've neglected my blog a bit. Sorry about that!
