Easter

Finally holiday... It is much needed! After a stressful few months it is nice to let everything go and just relax. Many books are waiting to be read, accompanied by a nice cup of tea and homemade cookies! I also have quite a bit of catch up to do on my college work, and my thesis on the development of American art music in the 20th century! Interesting things... And I can't wait to go back home to Norway for a week!

Have a lovely holiday!

Happy Easter!

Spring fever

Spring has definitely sprung here in London, and it's absolutely wonderful to go out without having to wrap up in scarves, hats and thick coats and feeling that the sun is actually starting to feel warm! This weather always makes me feel very creative, and here are two of my latest creations.

And this is my 'creative corner', where I normally sit when inspiration takes me..

I went to another market last weekend to look for treasures. And I found one! An old photo album full of photos. Beautiful strangers dressed up in their nicest clothes for the family portraits. I love looking at their faces, their clothes and the way they interact with each other in the photos. I imagine who they were, what they did and whether they were happy.. Fascinating!

I'm longing for spring...

I long for long, warm days, colourful summer dresses, tea in the garden, picnic in the park, warm summer rain, swimming in the sea, wild flowers, fishing. Not too long to go now!

When the sun shines..

...the cat outside my window takes the opportunity to bathe in the sunshine.
