Visual Organizing

I love it when I get my left side of the brain and my right sight of the brain working together :)

Evening

 

A bittersweet symphony is the best way to describe it, but the bitter makes the sweet so much more sweeter: enjoying the autumn evenings of long meals, good talks and painting.

More than Words

 

Some words from my creative journal that keep me focused

For lunch

I´ll miss those simple summer lunches

this summer was hot, beautiful and hard (*

one thing I will take with me into the next season

is the beauty of simplicity,

I think summertime was designed to remind us of that

The Way Back

 

One of the things that intrege me the most is how we can stay in a place where we can hear that small soft Voice above all the other voices, screaming for our attention. Lately I have been very practical about turning the volume of those voices down by providing myself a surrounding of peace. I am not a minimalist but I´m starting to see how true ´Less is more´ really is. How owning to much stuff distracts me, keeps me occupied and steals my focus and above all my time.

Ever since the beginning of this year I´ve been getting rid of 50 items a week, wich is working for me very well. It helps me getting things done without being overwhelmed... and wow I´m starting to see results!

My goal is not owning next to nothing, but I do strive for simplicity.  It is a journey that requires a lot of patience, but small consistent steps is the way to go here. In the meantime these keep me inspired

Spring Nights

 

Long and light spring nights turn my kitchen into a gallery  (a different context helps seeing it with different eyes). It´s been pure joy and pure frustration at the same time to paint again. But: some things work, some things don´t. I´m learning to accept that the things that don´t are just as an important part of the process as the things that do.

Flowers

 

It has been pouring for days now. So no picking flowers in the sun, but still enough flowers to enjoy inside.

1. I forgot what seed I planted, surprise surprise..
2. Tile wisdom best translated with ´there is no place like home´ I replaced the dark brown frame with this bright pink, really happy with how it turned out.
