I'm not a photographer

I'm not a photographer, I have no clue what I do when it comes to the technicalities of taking pictures. I do like to document memories, treasure the moments I share with friends, family and nature or the adventures of a new place. Every once in a while I get to borrow a "fancy-er" camera from a friend (thank you Mr. Dixon!) that allows me to experiment a little bit more than my own little, red square allows me to. Here are a few photos from my last long exposure light experiment - done in September.

I'm making art ~ I swear!...

I'm having some technical difficulties uploading new pictures. Does anyone know if there is a limit to how much you can upload to a blogspot account? And if so, what's the total limit of all posts?? How many MG?

Anyhow - hopefully there will be some new pictures up soon - I am trying to fix it.

"Winter in Norway"

smile because it is friday!

I just wanted to share some textures that I have created since I've been so interested in textures lately and exploring with adding them into my pieces. Ahh, it's been a very looong week and I am stoked to see that Friday night is finally here and it is time to relax! (for a few hours before I start working on my on going projects which have been giving me such a hard time!)

Here are a few different versions of my "winter" themed project (See sketchbook work posted 2 weeks ago to see my starting point). I just finished these ones yesterday. Which one do you like the best?

Do you speak messenging/SMS?

I did this in class today. It was a project that had to be completed within one hour. Do you speak messenging/SMS? 

Distant memories

Born with ski's on...

This is a page from my sketchbook that I did today. I am working with illustrating the season winter, particularly winter in Norway and the way I see and feel for it. This will be a series of at least 2 illustrations (hopefully 3). I'll be done in two weeks from now. Oh, and these are just my ideas and thoughts for what I plan on doing, so that you can follow me from the beginning of the project til the finished result. I major part of the series will be done with textures, colors and patterns.

I drew this in the car on our way to Sweden this summer.
