i’m drinking coffee and drawing polar bears on the computer today. the best thing to be doing on a sunday. (should be cleaning and doing laundry) listening to this perfect track by rosa lux and alberte called min club først.

second photo: i’ve been on the look out for a pair of new ballerinas for some time and finally found some yesterday that i really like.

happy sunday everybody!

i’m making new illustrations for brinja’s shop. trying out different techniques and styles. this weekend has been great - lots of sunshine and time to relax. i know next week will be busy but i intend to do some blogging as well. see you soon!

easter has arrived. on elephant and caterpillar backs. happy easter everybody!

i’m considering new illustrations and new animals to draw. spring has moved into our apartment in the shape of branches ready to bloom, but outside it’s still freezing cold. in the first photo the content of my pocket since last weekend’s visit to the beach.

thanks for all your congratulation wishes! i had a great day and have been seing family and friends during the past week.

have a lovely sunday everybody!

today i’m wrapping postcards and feeling very happy that some of my drawings actually exist as postcards now. : ) to celebrate i’m giving away some postcards alongside a couple of yashica prints.

just leave a comment below and i’ll draw a winner next sunday.

have a great sunday everybody!

just a quick hello today - i have been without internet connection for two days!! it feels like someone dismantled my arms and took off…well almost. now i’m sitting in a nearby café drinking a very long cup of coffee and enjoying a bit of online time.

have a great friday everybody! the sun is shining in copenhagen today, for the first time in many many days.

been working som more on the three birds on a branch drawing that looked like this before.

phew, it’s already monday, where did the weekend go? i have been working some more on my bird postcards and hope to have them ready soon. the owl illustration i showed you some time ago has changed and now there’s two owls sitting on the branch…it’s a bit too cartoon like at the moment - but getting there. the other one is a new one i’m still working on.

hope your monday is treating you well!

- sekimachihato: they are very comfy. NE is back on his feet - i’m convinced it was the omelet that cured him ; ) i only noticed that the entire photo was full of blue shades after i took the photo. ps. as far as i recall it was sunmaid raisins we got in small packages, when i was little.
- lotte: tak, ja jeg er også blevet forfalden til nærmest kun at gå i skjorter. omeletten havde helt klart helbredende egenskaber : )
- ne: selvfølgelig
- lorenza: i can’t get enough of autumn colors either! and i agree - nothing beats comforting meals!
- mothersvea: it was good! i have a bit of an egg obsession these days.
- ai: the omelette consisted of red onions, tomatoes, thyme and parmesan cheese well and eggs of course : ) there might have been red peppers in it as well..can’t remember.
- maria: me too! omelet rules! your welcome and it really is strange to write in the beginning : ) thanks for your sweet words about the blog!
- marion: thank you marion, i’m honoured to be on your list!

hello everybody! yesterday i was up early because i was going mushroom hunting with NE’s stepmother. we went to gribskov, which is such a beautiful forest! we didn’t find that many mushrooms though but enough to make a delicous mushroom sauce. today is a quiet saturday with rain and book reading. very nice.

wishing you a great saturday!

well yesterday my brother and i visited our grandmother. a great trip but i forgot my camera there! don’t know when i will go and pick it up, so until then i have desided to draw a bit in the meantime. a small “one drawing a day” project!..we’ll see how it goes. thanks for all your comments on the cake post! i will let my friend helle know that her cakes made quite an impression.

i hope this owl drawing will be part of my bird postcard project…just have to make some adjustments/improvements and see how it fits into the ones i have made so far

- lorenza: mmm crumble sounds great, i really like these types of cakes. may it be the first of many : )
- ai: i know almost overwhelming with all those delicious berries.!
- nathalie: that’s the thing..even though you eat lunch there’s still room for cake ; )
- ne: he, ja det er måske meget godt : )
- anairam: hehe your comment made me smile anairam.
- ida: JA, lagkage er noget af det bedste!
- epe, D: they were delicious
- máni: yeah i really like the colors in the first photo, looks almost analogue.
- lotte: den var tærtelækkeragtig : ) tror nok at opskrifterne er fra den der hedder kager der smager. ja efter tre fødselsdage er man ved at være mæt af alt det lækre…men kun for en stund : ) ps. det er så hyggeligt at være hyggeligt at være nabo til ungtblod…sjovt at tænke på om der skulle være flere nabobloggere derude.
- anna: oh you are fasting, then i can imagine it being even harder to look at cakes…
