Change of scenery

The winter in Norway has been exchanged by this lovely beach in Cha-Am in Thailand

When January comes, Tore and I travel east in order to shorten the winter. Our stop the last 7-8 years has been Thailand, and the little town of Cha-Am. Now we have been here already for two weeks, and we will stay for another two. This year I have not brought any painting material, ok, some watercolours, paper and a few brushes. I can’t be completely without doing something creative. As I say; a drawing a day, keeps the doctor away! So here are a few:

I dreamt I was a mermaid
What did you say?!
Where is my prince?

Munch is moving

Before we left Oslo, we went to see the last exhibition in the present Munch museum in Oslo. The exhibition is called: All we own. It was not much to see, but what we saw was interesting enough. Because the museum is very soon moving into the new and large Munch museum downtown at Bjørvika, they are packing down all the artworks, more than 30 000 all together, but they have left some to still make an exhibition. It was works by Edvard Munch and art from three other collections, also given to the Munch Museum. In addition to Edv. Munch we also saw works by Amaldus Nielsen and Ludvig O. Ravensberg, artists that we don’t see very often. Here are a few works by Munch that at least I have not seen before.

Preparing for painting courses

Before we left, I spent some days in the studio, preparing for the coming painting courses coming up after my return from Thailand. As you may know, I love to learn new things, and in this field Pamela Caughey and her Artandsuccess.com website and her painting courses gives me a lot of inspiration and new knowledge. Do check it out.

One of the things I learned from her was how to use a gelli plate. It is a kind of a soft plate that feels like gelli, and it is used to make one to one prints. I bought mine at Torso, an art materials store in Oslo that also sells the brand Golden paint. With this gelli plate you can make your own collage paper. It is quite easy. Here are the ones I made before I left.

I made my own collage paper using the gelli plate.

These collage prints I use in my paintings to make texture and tract creates another kind of look that are not easily made just by brushes.

My painting courses are now fully booked, and I really look forward to start again when I get home. This spring my students will learn about colour mixes, value and design, glazing and collaging, among other things like markmaking and techniques.

Painting equipment

This year I have only brought with me a small watercolour kit, and I say to myself that it is not the size that counts when making art. At the Munch Museum we saw his palette and painting kit, not much to write home about, but he made great art with it.

Here are Munch's palette and brushes
Munch's painting kit
My travel kit with watercolour. Very well used.

I am definitely not in the same class as Edvard Munch, but here are a few examples of what I have used my watercolours for here. And there is more to come.

This way! Watercolour play

    Hi everyone I am Emily Naomi wanna give a big thanks to this wonderful psychic for bringing my husband back to me… I never really believed in magic spells or anything spiritual but a trusted friend opened my eyes to the truth about life. My marriage was heading to divorce a few months ago. I was so confused and devastated with no clue or help on how to prevent it, till I was introduced to this psychic Priest Ray that did a love spell and broke every spiritual distraction from my marriage. A day later my husband started showing me love and care even better than it used to be, he’s ready to talk things through and find ways for us to stay happy. It’s such a miracle that my marriage can be saved so quickly without stress.

    LOST RECOVERY MASTERS ARE VERY CONSISTENT AND RELIABLE HACKERS

    The Lost Recovery Masters Group of Hackers saved Me from my cheating husband. My husband had a family outside our Marriage and had been spending my money on them.. I became suspicious at a point due to his late calls privately and his frequent money asking habit which he was using to fund his family. I got fed up and had to seek a Hacker to spy on his phone and to my disbelief this group proved my suspicion was correct. The Hackers got me proof of his message and calls including the address of his other family where he was spending some quality time when I was at work. if you need such services reach them through,;

    Love remains amazing when you are with your soulmate and happiness ever after is assured for you both. DR ISIKOLO made me realize that you can recover what makes life beautiful to you just when I lost hope in getting my man back and he returned him back to me. We had a complicated relationship and fought all the time and he left heart broken and I was miserable. DR ISIKOLO came into the picture after several attempts to win him back and failed. He restored the love and connection between me and my man and in just after 48 hours, we had a date and talked things over and now we are planning on getting married and living happily together forever. Words cant express my gratitude to DR ISIKOLO and everyone that has spoken highly of him never lied about him because he is indeed trustworthy. Contact him today and let him help you too. email: (isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com) or text him via WhatsApp: +2348133261196

    I met my wife when I was working and living in Alaska. Ever since we got married, it has been all good till she decided to go for a summit in another state where she met someone who became closer to her and eventually he eloped with her. All my efforts to get back home to me was all in vain and her family did their best to reunite us but nothing worked. Just like everyone else, I came in contact with Dr Isikolo and he eventually did wonders and now my wife is back to me. It was revealed that she was hypnotized by the guy who eloped with her.  I am glad I never let my emotions get the best of me to have ended my marriage with her. Dr Isikolo is a strong spell caster and trust him when he says the results will manifest just after 48 hours.

    I lost my marriage after 2 years and it was a horrible experience for me. My wife left me and my son and everything happened beyond my control and I never knew few people around me engineered my wife and turned her against me just because I choose to build my family and focus more on it. I had to seek help because I know I did not do anything to have my marriage crashed. Dr Isikolo helped me and a lot was revealed to me on what transpired. He cast a love reunion spell that bonded my wife and I back together and the whole evil my family did against me was revealed. Am thankful that my home is back more happier than ever and all the appreciation goes to Dr Isikolo as he indeed fixed my problems just after 48 hours. email: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com or text him on WhatsApp him on +2348133261196

    I was still in college when I met my fiancé. We dated for quite a long time and cohabited and our relationship was approved by our parents. We got along and everything was perfect. He traveled out for some training and since then everything never became good for us again. He was seeing a lady over there and he tends to have committed much to what they shared and left me out the picture. I did all I can to fix the problem but nothing worked until I heard about Dr Isikolo. I contacted him and explained what I was going through and he promised to help which he did as promised. I complied with the instructions he gave me and he fixed the problem I had with my fiancé and now he’s back to me and we are getting married in a month. All thanks to Dr Isikolo.

    After I and my husband got married, we relocated to another city and we both got jobs and started working and living together happily. We never had any problems until a colleague of his started doing all she can to get my husband’s attention. I never knew all along what was going until he started sleeping out and making excuses. Things got out of control and he eventually stopped attending to my needs. I knew at that point I needed help so I contacted Dr Isikolo and explained everything to him. He told me all that has been going and promised to fix the problems for me which he did. He cast a love reunion spell for me which reunited i and my husband and he started being the man I always loved him to be just after 48 hours Dr Isikolo worked for me. We are both happy now and it would not have been possible if not for Dr Isikolo.  Contact him if you need any help.  text him on WhatsApp him on +2348133261196 or you review his webpage (https://isikolo-temple.com)

I was a logistics manager who lives in Lancaster, S.C. and works about an hour’s drive away, in Charlotte, N.C., I stopped at a store to buy a scratch-off lottery ticket during my lunch break, because Dr Lucas gave me all the assurance that the numbers are not going to fail after I did all he asked me to do.
