Depict

We moved this autumn and now we live on what could be the nicest street in the world. Maybe. At least it makes me smile when I go out. I haven’t been out there sketching anything yet but from our yard I have done some roofs. This is what I did today while the children got dirty. So this is one of the roofs on the street but from the backside..

I used pen and watercolor, only paynes grey. Some of the color got away somewhere, maybe it is still in the scanner. Where I had a more watery wash it is only the paperwhite left. (the sky for exampel)
I guess you all have to come visit me to see it properly!

Last week we celebrated Lucia. At our nursery they had the most adorable show and after that we had “fika” (coffee, gingerbread and some soft buns with saffron).
After that we had salmon soup with saffron and then carrot cake and cardamum ice cream for dessert. I prepared the soup earlier that day and when I had peeled the vegetables I just had to sketch them. Never came around to add some color until today.

The daughter and me has made some cards this year. Just a few, but I like them. Just have to send them. Before christmas. Today actually.. (Step away from the computer Maria. Now!)
