and embroideries by Indian girls and women from Mahila Embroidery Club, Jaisalmer, Rajasthan
And my own works from Water in desert project.
Three days we used for arranging and opening the exhibition and we also had a "secret" opening with a lecture for interested members of the art association.All was successful but a bit of a happening according to the technical equipment in the museum, but with a little help from a dear friend from the staff it worked!
After this I´m quite finished for at least three days!

WORK IN PROGRESS 7

I´M TRAINING

Now I´m aproaching the big piece again.To be able to decide how I will continue on the big yellow open fields I´m making small trainingpieces to know how this will be done.
Ah,Ah,Ah,,,,It´s such a painful and slow job! Why do I insist in doing this?. Well, today will be the day, when I will make the printing/ painting that will be the ground to work on.Let´s see in the next blog!
Still much snow...
This is the big piece at this stadium... expecting new attacs!

WORK IN PROGRESS 5

FLOD, HEAT&CAMELS
Today I´m curious about how this will be developed!, The icy snow on the top must be less distinct in form.There must be more rushing water, especially in front of the white camel and the dam at the bottom should be marked. Now the day begins!

WINTERWALK/WORK IN PROGRESS 4

 
Wonderful sunny day for a walk, But first a glance in my garden..Who have been there?


My home is on the hill far away


With white caps...

         Shimmering small domes
 
"Straight forward"- thought the hare...


quick,quick,quick, ran the mouse ...


Tree between light and darkness


stars have fallen down


Complete beauty

 
From cold to heat, A new embroidery starts, small one after the bigger that is now resting for a while, as I don´t know how to continue. It´s so good to start something new. this will be about flood, heat and camels. Perhaps? Let´s see.Tomorrow is another day...

  Ps.            FROM NOW ON YOU ARE WELCOME TO BE A FOLLOWER TO THIS BLOG.
You can do it open or hidden. Just look at the right hand side, and you will find instructions.
For me its very encouraging to get knowledge about who is following... If anybody. Or I may do it just for myself. Which is also a point, because I help myself to see what I´m doing.
Funny world!!
