Art journaling in a stressful world. Tune in yourself, tune out the world. It sounds lovely, doesn’t it? But I can’t always do it. I recommend it to anyone who can do it, but it’s not always easy. It’s hard sometimes to do any kind of art. The world gets in the way, or your […]

Mixed Media Painted Postcards
The weather has been very Novembery around here lately. Swedish November is such a sad, sad thing. Yuck! Above no sun or even puffy clouds – only gray, foggy sky all month… The air is damp, the bike is damp, and it gets dark around 4 o’clock in the afternoon. Very dark. So I feel […]
ICAD – irresistible challenge and it’s doable too
ICAD could stand for irresistible challenge, right? At least it seams that that’s what it is to me. Irresistible. And quite doable too. Those of us who has tried it, can not resist being pulled back in and doing it year after year. But ICAD stands for “index card a day”. It’s an art challenge […]
Experimental Portraits | Time-lapse Video
Make action a habit. Don’t wait until things are just right. There is never a perfect time to begin. There is only now. Expect that things will be difficult. Know that there will be setbacks. Remember how strong you are. Expect to succeed anyway. When you take action fear fades and confidence rises. Tess Marshall […]
Painting a lot of Hearts | Time-lapse video
Let my soul smile through my heart and my heart smile through my eyes, that I may scatter rich smiles in sad hearts. Paramahansa Yogananda All through February I have been painting colorful hearts in my little notebook. I could probably continue for a while longer, because there is no end to the ways you […]
Creating in January | Time-lapse painting video
I captured all the 31 first pages of January on video, so that you can take part of the creative process (in a rather rushed time-lapse way)! I’m really excited to share it with you today. I have shared just a few of the time-lapse videos on my instagram, but now I’ve compiled them into […]

Painted circles ad infinitum
I have painted circles, because I love circles. Love them! Well, I do love polka dots, spheres, and most any roundish pattern I find (or make), as you might know. And painted circles can be done in a couple of thousand different ways. There is no end to a circle, and I don’t imagine there […]
Illustrating Christmas
I have been illustrating Christmas in two recent paintings. They are not elaborate in style or detail, or even very thought through, but they’re my try at doing some kind of “design”, illustrating the season of Christmas in my own way. I follow a few illustrators on social media that has been filling my streams […]
