I am a pensioner and self learned artist who started drawing and painting summer -23. I like to work in watercolor, soft pastels, oil pastels and newly started in acrylics. Have occasionally done some pencil drawings in my lifetime. No sales!

@brucespringsteen.net Hello Bruce. You are a really great guy who stands for the values that are important to me and I am sure what is said is right. This person,Trump, acts like no one has experienced in a democracy since Germany 1936. I hope people stand up for you and follow.

Houses in Menton, Alpes-Maritimes, Provence, FrancePainted with soft pastels and pencil. (42x30 cm)

A very nice town with a lot of places where you can have a nice view to old houses in the small streets or around the squares. I fell for this narrow red house behind the roundabout.

Shows the kitchen in Munchs first owned house as it was left when he last visited the house. To the left a window with some leaves on the outside, then a cupboard hanging in the corner, a yellow chair under it, a small cupboard hanging on the kitchens light azure timber wall, a red drawer underneath, a small table with an electric plate on top of it with a blue enameled coffee kettle  underneath some aluminum water kettles. Hanging high on the wall, a shelf displaying five dinner plates. The lights come in through the window at the left side and fades a leaves shadows and a more greenish hue on the walls.

A n imagined sunset as seen from land towards a horizon over a sound in the Baltic Sea

A n imagined sunset as seen from land towards a horizon over a sound in the Baltic Sea

After a long inactive period, I figured I draw an imagined sunset. - Just to kick myself into more demanding work.-

This sunset is as we sometimes can see it from our summer stay in Bornholm, looking at the Baltic Sea and the coast of SkΓ₯ne, Sweden in the horizon

In front of fields flowers and grass. Then the big tree 2/3 of the picture, Background a small part of a fortress ruin. Blue sky with some small clouds.

This watercolour is a scene from Hammershus, the biggest fortress ruin in Scandinavia. Not quite happy about the clouds, but overall happy.Inf
