Happy New Year...

Few weeks ago I did order some stamps from China. 

I really love these, all reminds me about my favourite country, India.

Love making the background before I start stamping.

What do you think?

Hope you all have a wonderful night.

Here in Iceland everything is getting crazy at midnight.

Fireworks for an hour or two. 

Pour my dog and all the other animals that don´t like the bombing.

Happy New Year to you.

Namaste

I did finish two more paintings to day..

This is my third painting for the Gut Art class. I really enjoyed painting this one. 

As usually I did start with the background. While drying I did cut out the colors I wanted to use for her dress and wings. I found those beautiful legs in a magazine and I did cut out the wings from two different kind of papers. 

Now it was time to paint her face, I did use watercolor paper and Neocolor. I did cut out some hearts and the Om. 

I found this wonderful text in one of my boxes.

After gluing all peaces together I did glue my girl to the background.

This is my second week painting, just a flower I made of paper and paint, bright colors, nothing special but fun to make.

Have a beautiful week

Namaste

Butterfly angels

I have made 5 more of those beauties...

Love to make them and always excited over how they will look in the end.

What do you think, which one is your favorite?

Have a beautiful day

Namaste

Inspired by India, inspired by Pinterest

The class for last week in the Soul Food class was to find a board on Pinterest and make a painting inspired by the photo you pinned from Pinterest. 

As Im in love with India and have been for 25 years I did choose to use photos I have already in one of my boards in Pinterest, My India.

I had to add the OM symbol to my painting so I did choose to add it to the mans bag. 

I love this symbol.

 Om Aum (or OM) is a mantra, or vibration, that is traditionally chanted at the beginning and end of yoga sessions. It is made up of three Sanskrit letters, aa, au and ma which, when combined together, make the sound Aum or Om. It is believed to be the basic sound of the world and to contain all other sounds.  It is said to be the sound of the universe. 

I love the colors of India, love this photo and wanted to use blue color to the door in my painting.

This photo is amazing, good job from the photographer. Look at all this colors, almost like the color wheel.

And finally I had to add this lady, carrying her water on her head, maybe a long way. 

Made me think how good my life is, so many things to be grateful for.

Have a beautiful weekend

Namaste
