Snømannen min i avisen /My snowman in the newspaper

2011-12-07T21:22:00.001+01:00

Her er en snømann jeg tegnet for en stund siden som har vokst og blitt kjempestor!

Han har bodd hos Skiltservice Halden og nå fikk han endelig ut og se verden.

Here is a snowman I drew a while ago that has grown to be huge!

He has lived with Skiltservice Halden and now he finally got to see the world.

Han hadde også med seg tvillingbroren sin på

Fredrikshalds Turnforening sin tradisjonelle Juleturnoppvsning og

det ser ut til at snømannen var fornøyd med oppvisningen ;)

He also brought his twin brother on

Fredrikshalds Gymnastics Association's traditional Christmas show and
it appears that the snowman was very pleased with the show ;)

Look what I got in the mail today!!

The truth is that the Universe has been answering you all of your life,

but you cannot receive the answers unless you are aware.

Be aware of everything around you,

because you are receiving the answers to your questions in every moment of the day.

The channels those answers can come through are unlimited.

They could be delivered in the form of a newspaper headline that attracts your attention,

or overhearing someone speaking, or a song on the radio,

or signage on a truck passing by, or receiving a sudden inspiration.

Remember to remember, and become aware.

Let it snow....

Ønsker dere alle en riktig god helg ;)

Wish you all a happy weekend ;)

Ser det ut som hun er under vann?

Esther is not finished yet, but this is how she looks now.

Permission to be the artist you truly are

2011-09-02T14:29:00.001+02:00

A couple of years ago I bougth this book by Danny Gregory.

This is truly a great book!

Creativity is someting we are all born with, but somewhere along the way,

we convince ourselves we don’t have the right to label ourselves as creative or artists.

This book is Danny´s attempt to reverse that with a step-by-step process

to reawaken the creative impulse in us all.

It’s designed to be fun, easy, a little snarky, and adictive.

His goal is to help you lay the foundation for a lifelong habit of drawing,

making things, and becoming what you always dreamed of being — an artist.

It’s crammed with drawings and paintings and designed to be your constant, dog-eared,

coffee-stained sidekick. Pick yours up today.

Thank you Danny for giving me huge inspiration!

Here you can watch Danny drawing his breakfast ;)

The Art of Breakfast from DannyGregory on Vimeo.

Danny´s third book was the beginning of a whole new chapter in his publishing career
— and in his life.
It’s a memoir of his wife’s parapalegia, the accident that caused it, and how it changed everything.
It’s also about drawing and how he discovered its ability to give him perspective and peace.
It has been published in hardcover and paperback and even in Korean.
It has also spawned all sorts of groups and evernts as people came
to share his discoveries and applied them to their own lives.
It’s a funny book — most people who buy a copy end up buying lots more to give to their friends. Fortunately, there are some left. Get yours here.

How I met the ghost of Ester

Jeg har begynt på et nytt maleri.

Denne gangen har jeg gått tilbake til oljemaling og...c'est tout simplement génial!

Jeg elsker hvordan maleriet lever sitt eget liv, men denne gangen kom det med et eget navn også!!

Jeg tok bilde av maleriet fordi jeg skulle legge prosessen ut på bloggen.

Da jeg sendte bildet fra mobilen min til eposten hadde det på ett eller annet vis fått et eget navn i emnefeltet (det har ikke jeg fyllt ut).

Der stod det faktisk "Ester"?

Og jeg tenkte at det passet perfekt til bildet.

Kanskje det er Ester som sakte åpenbarer seg for meg......

I have started a new painting.

This time I have gone back to oil painting and ... c'est tout simplement génial!

I love how the painting lives its own life, but this time it came with its own name as well!

I took pictures of the painting because I was going to put the process on the blog.

When I sent the picture from my cell phone to my e-mail it had somehow been given

its own name in the subject line ( I have not filled that out).

There it was... "Ester"?

And I thought, it was perfect for the picture.

Maybe it's Ester who slowly reveals herself for me......

The drawing that was rejected

2011-08-30T15:56:00.000+02:00

Dette portrettet skulle jeg egentlig kaste, men jeg la det i skuffen isteden.

Av en eller annen grunn var det ikke så ille da det hadde "godgjort" seg i skuffa en stund.

Jeg tegnet litt her og litt der og vips så ble det ferdig likevel.

Så nå skal jeg pakke det godt inn og levere det til eieren.

Så får jeg håpe at eieren blir fornøyd.....

I was going to throw this portrait away, but I put it in the drawer instead.

For some reason it was not as bad as I thought when I looked at it after a while.

I drew a little here and a little there and voila it was done.

So now I'll pack it well and deliver it to the owner.

I hope that the owner will be happy .....

Dear World...hear our voice

You've never seen Oslo or any town like this
see the unique video of flowers.

The entire city center is decorated in roses in memory of the terror victims.

Over 200 000 people were encouraged to spread the flowers throughout the city.

I am so touched by all the people that shows their support to the victims, friends and family.

Look at this ocean of flowers.
More than 150 000 gathered.

Norway is a country that I am so proud of!
We stand together, we show our love.
If one man can create that much hate - imagine how much love we can create together.
The terrorist wanted to make war, but the world responds by holding hands - for peace.

Hold hands with us

Here is a beautiful song by Maria Mohn.
She has written a new text of the song "Dont give up" by Peter Gabriel.

(she sings it in Norwegian, but I have translated it so you can understand the lyrics)

Mountains and fjords and forests and seas
It is my Norway that I love
My little country, our beloved country
As beautiful as it may be possible
No one thought that our small country like Norway would lose all of its innocence
The day that all of the darkness came,
It was a day no one thought would come

Do not give up
We stand together
Do not give up
We get up again
Do not give up
For love conquers ...

Cold and without scruples, he went to the lives of so many
Imagine - he too was once
Just a boy on mom's lap
I can not believe that his hatred was growing so much that it took over
Every bit of him, every part
Tell me, when he lost his soul?

Do not give up
We stand together
Do not give up
We get up again
Do not give up
For love conquers ...

To all those who are left crying over the loss of their loved ones
We pray a prayer, our simple prayer
For each daughter and each son
Let's give our promise that this did not happen in vain
Our secure land shall no man
take from us any time!

Do not give up
We stand together
Do not give up
We get up again
Do not give up
For the love triumphs over hatred

Our country is in deep mourning.....
