There is so many things you can put down on a page in your art journal, you know. Endless ideas floating around. Sometimes it feels, really, like your brain is empty and you can’t come up with anything. But then there is always dots. You can paint dots on top of a colour, but you […]

Art Journal Peek | Painted Patchwork & White Flowe
Hi, thanks for stopping by and being part of my creative journey! This page is a more or less even, continues grid pattern that I enjoyed filling with watercolours. A painted patchwork maybe? I love grids, any kind of grid. I made it while away on my Journaling Vacation. Here is the full spread: Related […]
Summer Crush | The Flea Market
I love everything about the summer in general. And every summer about this time when it comes to visiting flea markets, or loppis as we say in Swedish, I feel a flea market crush coming on…. I love a good loppis and would love to spread the Loppis Love by inviting you to visit one […]
Art Journal Peek: Painting Patterns
I’m continuing my patterned road to colorful art journal pages. After Mon Amie I decided to copy the pattern of one of my favorite vintage pillow cases. I accidentally tore it up recently, and it’s beyond saving because it’s worn thin in the middle. I think I can still use some of the fabric for […]
Art Journal Peek: Mon Amie Pattern
Like everyone else I’ve caught the “make your own pattern” bug in the past months! It’s very contagious. I’ve made new patterns but also “copied” some to me well known patterns, like the porcelain pattern “Mon Amie”. It’s blue, but holds special memories for me, so I guess that’s why I wanted to make my […]

These pages are a continuation from last weeks Valentine doodles, made mostly in front of the TV at night, when its dark […]

Weekly Inspiration: Pattrn app + entrepreneurial t...
A while back mom asked for help to get a nice background for her new smart phone. I helped her download a random background app that we then both totally fell in love with! I had to install it on my phone too. It has since made me happy every single day! It’s called Pattrn, […]

I got a sketchbook with the theme grids and lines in the mail last year for The Brooklyn Art Library and their huge sketchbook exhibition. This exhibition is now on tour in the US, and if you have the time I think you should go see it. I would spend a few hours (or days) […]

Owls, socks and blood
I’m the happy owner of a pair of owl patterned panties! I didn’t buy them for myself when I first spotted them in the store, and when I went back they were sold out everywhere! I felt so sad since I very seldom really want something for myself that is not art material or craft […]
Roses inspires me
A painting I did this winter when my brother had winter break from school and we did some art stuff together. I made this acrylic painting on wood – inspired by a window cloth I have.
