I like the atmosphere and colors in these pictures found at hemnet.

Monkeybusiness

I like monkeys/apes.
Top picture is from a schoolbook from 1878.
The monkeys at the bottom I bought in India from a little man with very hairy ears.

island finds

We stopped in a small self service fleamarket along the road on Öland. I found a little japanese girl, african fabric, jugend coaster and a small apron made from Viola Gråsten fabric.

öland

We drove up to Öland at the weekend to visit my brother who is studying there. It was grey and rainy but we drove around in the car looking. It was nice to see a new place and my dear brother.
We also saw the biggest and the smallest bird of Sweden at the same time here.

Its been so windy and rainy this weekend. I find the wind a bit tireing.
I stayed in and drew yesterday, first time in ages.
Two full moons rose outside our bedroom window this evening when the rain had cleared....

Gardens

Went and visited a friend last night and we made som chutney together. She´s just moved in to a little flat overlooking these nice gardens. Lots of inspiring compositions.

Bye, bye cranes - til next year

Cranes were cirkeling in the updrafts above our house yesterday then forming plowshapes and flying south for the winter.
Jellyfish washed up on the beach, looking like glassbeads.
First fire of the autumn in the woodstove.
Beautiful pom-pom looking growth from rosehipbush.

Overslept

I slept too long this morning...
Yesterday I made the round leathercushion from bits of scrapleather.
The spotty cushion in the background is by Margo Selby for Habitat.

Bright, crisp and still here today, how I like autumn to be. Bark, the dog, found a nice place to sit and watch the world.

Clearing

Clearing my desk and noticeboard today, time for new things to land.
Got some colorful asters from a friend yesterday.
