Glad Lucia på er!
Stackars ägg. Men om det fortfarande är bra så blir det ju straxt uppätet.

#artadventcalendar Dec. 13:th is for 2013, when I kept painting complex things with an unclear meaning. Oil. Life was becoming complex, but it still let me paint.

#artadventcalendar -- I haven't been feeling very well at all (complex & private reasons/disasters) so I fail in giving you a full calendar now. But Dec. 12:th is for 2012, when I made this wild thingy.

#artadventcalendar -- Dec. 3:rd is for 2003, very roughly:
My student union (Södertörn Univ.) had a newspaper (name of Soda) where I spent some happy years not becoming a very advanced philosopher and historian. I got my first printed illustrations published there. A few of them still look fine:

#artadventcalendar : Dec. 2:nd is for 2002 -- by which time I had just begun painting larger stuff. I don't have much remaining from that year. Two years later I was painting in another garden, and a certain disenchantment with just doing realism is beginning to show. (Note the odd angle etc.)

#artadventcalendar ! Dec. 1:st.
My first painting is from yesteryear and came true today; most of this very mondayish Monday was spent going blub blub blub to no avail.
I wanted to count this Advent from 2001 (for today) to 2025 (for Xmas Day) but the first years are a bit unorganised. Stay tuned!

verklighet med drömmar
sorg med glädje
tårar med skratt
avstånd med närhet
saknad med längtan
mörker med ljus
Allt som är liv och inte död.

Somnade tidigt, kallt och novembersvart som det var. Belönades med litet originellare mardrömmar än vanligt (som något slags byggjobbare på svindlande svajande blivande vån. 666 utan säker väg ned, och mitt vakenjag har inte höjdskräck...)
Så. 05:24. Frukost? Låtsas somna om?

A good read to begin the week with, our intelligence doesn't give us superior rights above nature. Plenty of bon mots: "With this logic, as some point out, if an alien species with superior intelligence and complexity arrived on planet Earth, humans would need to consent to being eaten."
Decentering.

Morrn! Hur är det med er? Här en melankolisk höstdag, men som sådan mild och i perfekt harmoni med mina inre landskap.

Västerbron och stan i glittrande skymningsljus. Alltid en lika magisk upplevelse. Två vackra fjärdar som dygnets alla timmar tar sin tillflykt under valvet och ömt kysser varandra.

Voilà, some morose Friday poetry for you (in picture and ALT-text) and an equally cheerful plant. Hope you'll enjoy.

"From the Sewers" -- #surreal #digital #artwork; digital painting on collage (my own photos, of course). The park is local and very real but rather distorted.
The music was made with my piano, a spoon and a teacup clinking and various random samples.
Now, what does all of this mean?

People forget that
In the autumn colours come
On cherry trees too.
(A little #haiku on love vs friendship, spring vs fall, the transience of sakura or whatever you want it to mean.)

Bring me all of your dreams,
You dreamers.
Bring me all of your
Heart melodies
That I may wrap them
In a blue cloud-cloth
Away from the too rough fingers
Of the world.

Take a look at her collection of lists! Not only scientists. I'm proud to be in one of them (as an artist) but there are also Journalists, Cats and whatnot. Go see! 🌞
Added two more scientists to my scientists list. Bluesky is nice! 🙂
