Going to Sweden!

Fri May 8, 2009, 6:34 AM
  • Mood: Artistic
  • Watching: My Fellow Artists
I'm heading to Sweden for five days, as part of a school trip. I'll be with two other teachers and two students. It's part of an EU conference on water pollution and acid rain. We'll be in Lysekil. If any of you are from Sweden and know the area, please give some advice on what to see and where to go. Thanks! I should be back by next Wed night.

No, just a lot of mud and rain. But they're finally building the roof on my house! So, have you started Christmas planning yet?

:) I'm still living with the in-laws. :P

The roof should have "foil" over it by the end of next week. We should also get the windows and doors installed soon. And we just got approved for our mortgage! After weeks of the bank stalling. Hey, if there were anything about that family pic you would change, what would it be? It's still a work in progress.

you earned them. I've been meaning to ask. Where do you get all your imagery from? Are all of these painted outside, from life? If so, you travel a lot! How can you afford it? Or, do you find photos to work from. Or do you take your own photos and work in studio?

Hi,
90% of my arts I painted in plein-air, and You right... I travel very often. I spend huge part of my earnings on travel. I'm also amateus photographer and sometime I'm making photos for later painting in studio.
I will submit my photography on DeviantArt soon.
