The world isn't right ...

Here a "persiflage" of Piet Mondrian's famous piece, echoes of the times: this isn't 'an orderly state'! of things?!

Studying - to move

Here my study of E Hopper's Western Hotel (acrylics on canvas, 120x80cm). Not satisfied with my results ...

Intensity of nature

It's when the forces meet that magic arises, even in the most profane dimensions

Paris tears and determination


Let’s not give them any chance to upset our life style

Paris: Love Over Fear


Despite the grief and horror, we must not let fear rule.  It would be to give in to terrorism, and their trail of atrocities in the Middle East, Madrid, London, Mumbai, NewYork and now (again) in Paris. They attacked us all - our values and way of life - even our pleasures. They targeted sports  fans, music fans, and ordinary bistro visitors - places and sources of joy for so many. - to instill fear. Let's not give them that.

New beginnings ...

Life projects and happiness

Stockholm greets with wonderfully smiling weather and people. Stopped by a gallery with an artist exploring our "mental blind spots" in pictures.

It's an intriguing thought, and generates interesting questions:
- which inner rooms we leave empty and unknowingly closed?
- which voids do we miss to see?
- what parts of life do we fail to grasp?

and

what is needed for us to find them and see them?

1000 years of living passionately?
Exploring, through art and daring do?
