When I’m happy, or sad, or curious, or hungry (!) I like to draw. When I’m stressed too. Or confused, it makes things clearer (sometimes).
Or, when I am longing for something.

I put on some music, make myself a big cup of coffee and colors comes swooshing out of my pen.

We lift ourselves by lifting others up.

Forever grateful for those who fought for my rights!

And I wish that 8M would be an unnecessary day. But unfortunately we’re still very far from gender equality.

My kid chose to dress up as Hilma af Klint for the school carnival today. The theme was Art and Artists. Hilma af Klint was born in Sweden 1862. A unique and very modern artist ❤️🥰

When you’re shortsighted like me, the glasses really changes my face because of how much smaller my eyes look with them on… it’s almost like I have two faces. So here is a self portrait, with, or without glasses 👓💚

So yesterday my association APIAST had a presentation and art exhibition at lovely Museo Barjola in Gijón!! Fifty of the members showed an art piece (will stay until end of February), there were workshops and speeches and so much love and positive energy in the air!

Inspired by the #hilmaafklint expo I saw at @guggenheim.bsky.social this weekend I made some abstract art searching for tasty color combinations. These is a collage too.

It’s _that_time of year! Art vs artist time!

Every year I make a collage and look through my art and think about what I’ve learned, and what I would like to do more (or less) of in the future.

Is anyone feeling Christmas yet?

I know it’s early but I couldn’t resist changing our Halloween picture for a Christmasy one, that I did last year.

Do you celebrate Christmas? If so: how?
