To get back at the pandemic, I’ve chosen to start my Creatures of Folklore series of paintings with Pesta. In English, I’ve seen her called the Plague Maiden.

Now, most people are back in the groove after New Year’s but not me. So I’ve set a goal for myself to get back into making art. Now, this is not a New Year’s resolution, I don’t do those. It’s a plan 🙂

There are many different names for the midwinter celebration and many different dates. Whatever you call it, have a good one (despite Covid) but make sure you and yours are safe and well.

I decided to the #WorldWatercolorMonth to get back into art after a fairly long drought (due to low energy, corona etc) and to get some ideas down

After a very long and painful winter and then the pandemic, I finally got to paint again

Creativity is a blessing and a curse. If you feel inspired, there’s no task you cannot complete. But if you run out of creative ideas, your work may as well become painful and mind-boggling.

Why do you need it? Even the simplest self-care rituals can really make a positive change in your life.

Even though the weather might suck where you are (it does here) and we have a pandemic raging through the world, I wish all Norwegians at home and abroad a lovely 17. mai 🙂

In this article, you will discover some great ways to become more creative through nature.

You are a unique individual. There will never be anyone in the world like you. How does that make you feel? You don’t have to copy what other people are doing. The world needs people who embrace their creativity.
