Akvareller i Norberg / Watercolors in Norberg

Opening day for my exhibition in Norberg today. Great weather and nice people. Norberg is a small city with genuine old swedish buildings and beautiful environment. Well worth a visit.  
A nice couple arrived at opening time and immediately bought one of my own favorites -"Swedish Countryside" (100x155 cm).

Exhibition continues until 13th of May.

Skånepåsk... / Eastern

Jag tog en sväng ner till Skåne i påskas. Konstrundornas mecka. Nu hann jag inte med alla de hundratals utställare som numera fyller myllan. Istället sprang jag på stranden med barnen och letade strandade saker.
Påskens sämsta dag, vädermässigt, (15 sekundmeter, småregn och +3 grader) gick ner till stranden för lite akvarellmålning. Fann lite skydd bakom nån gammal betongbunker.
Kunde skymta Kullaberg där ute i vattnet...

Went down to the most southern spot of Sweden this Eastern holiday. The weather was...terrible. At least that morning when I decided to do some watercolor painting. +3 degrees Celsius, nearly storm, and rain. I found some shelter behind an old retired militairy bunker. 
Three sketches, then I was done. Or at least my fingers...

Morris in Watercolor

Celebrated my friends and their newborn named Morris. Could not think of anything else than an old Morris Minor 1000 -1959 in watercolor.

Watercolor Workshop - End of March

I had a midmorning workshop in Stockholm the other day. The class ask me to do barns (again!). Whatever, I love painting old barns.

Akvarellsalongen Väsby Konsthall

I år fick jag äran att sitta i juryn för akvarellsalongen i Väsby Konsthall. Hundratals akvareller kom som vanligt till hallen för bedömning, men vi, Maya Rygaard, Per-Arne Hansson och jag känner att vi lyckades vaska fram det allra finaste i akvarellväg.
