Two more...

Here you have too more of my mother Gunvors work. I love to show you all her art works, in all shapes and sizes.

And here you have one staty of a woman I now have inside, before it was outside in the garden.

This is a piece that should be on a wall, it is a collection of things from nature.

Love you mum!

Here you can se older post's - about my mom's work:

The old oak tree and roses

Now when the winter is coming any day now, it's cold but not snowy yet, I start to think about all the nice tings of summer.

Like this beautiful old oak tree. I take my walks here and watch it all the seasons. But I prefer it in the summer. It is more than 100 years old they told me. You can just imagine all the things that had happened all this years. It probably will stand there after I am dead too.

An here we have my lovely roses, they make my summer, every year. Oh I miss the summer!

More of my mothers art

As you could se before I did put up some of my mother Gunvor's art work here on my blog. As I also promisied, here is some more of her stuff.

This "Aquarium" above is made of wool - yarn - and home made ceramic details.

I am sorry for the flash light in the middle, but it is a watercolour of a landscape here in the country.

This is a typical piece of art from my mother, she loved to do things in ceramics that looked like they where from things in the nature around us. Like this huge seed pod.
Love you mum!

Here the earlier photos of some other work my mum did:

My mosaic table

Last summer I wanted to make a table to put outdoor in my garden. So I opted for a mosaic table made from old tiles that I cut in pieces.

But first I draw the patterns I wanted - a turquoise sea, a sun and a blue sky - on the table.
Then piece by piece I put them there and glued them on the table with cement.

Now it was time for the finishing touch, and after that I was ready to put it all out in the sun in my garden. Or at least I thought so.

And it turned out well, at first. At least it looked good. Then I placed a sink in the table, so I could be able to wash hands outside.
But then it started to rain, not uncommon here in Sweden. And then it all fell apart, and had to throw it all away....
But it was beautiful as long it lasted.
If you want to see what I got instead - look for the blog post here on My blog from Ostuna that's about home made pizzas.

My mother Gunvor's art work

I just came to think of her again, as I often do, my late mother Gunvor who died more than a year ago. But even if she is not here on earth no more - her art works still are. She was amazing at working with ceramics, and water colour and all the rest.
Here is some of her works, for you to see.

This is a torso of ceramics, even if it looks like wood. 

And here is a scuplture in rusty iron, called "What are we doin'g with the earth!"

This is a work of art that I love som much, is made from stuff my mother found in the ashes of my house that burned down. She made it from fabrics she found in the snow, and it shows my home in flames. I is so beautiful, even if it was an horrific experience.

And here is an oil painting of the back yard of her home, a sunny day in Sweden.

And here she is my lovely mother Gunvor. Miss you!

Another day I will put even more of her works, love them all.

A nice slice of Turkey

Here is some photos from a trip I made some years ago, to Side in Turkey. This i pic from the beach, the hotel I stayed in had it's own sandy beach with full service.

Here is the beach restaurant at my hotel, good food every day without leaving the beach. Or the pool area. The hotel was very nice, Sentidio Perissia Hotel in Side.

I loved the grilled meat or fish, made in front of your eyes , á la minute. And since I went all inclusive I never had to pay for anything. Very nice.

And here is Side amphitheatre. A must to see when in Side. 

The roman amphitheatre in Side centrum is now a museum.

And here you have the remains of The Temple of Apollo.

One man outside the mosque of Side, beautiful tiles - not only there but everywhere in the older houses of the city. Today most of the houses in the city is now made to fit the tourists, but they are still beautiful.

In almost every shop you can find spices, sweets and the traditional mint tea and apple tea.

And of course I stayed here, at the poolside wich was enormous and very well kept. It still was a little cold in the sea - I was there in april - but the pools was really nice.

Updated Snow Angels

Just want to say I updated my story on Wattpad with some new chapters.
http://www.wattpad.com/2542179-snow-angels-part-7

Here is the first chapter of Snow Angels:

It is always difficult to wake up after a long night partying. But this morning it was extra hard, my head was pounding and I felt like vomiting.

I didn’t really remember where I ended up yesterday. When my eyes finally got accustomed to the bright light outside I realized that I had been sleeping in a big room with a modern touch, stylish furniture and eggshell colored walls, like in a fancy magazine. You know the type that you could find in Modern Architecture.

But the thing that got me going was the fact that I was not alone in the bed. Beside me was a snoring man in his forties, half naked and with a big tattoo on his right shoulder. An ugly eagle.

Then I looked down on my own body, I was still dressed, thank God, in my light yellow silk dress that now more looked like a worn nightgown, all wrinkly and stained.

Oh dear, I wonder what these stains came from?

I tried really hard but could not remember anything about him or the night that passed. How did I end up here? Who was this guy?

I was now sitting up and the hammer in my head started to pound in my forehead, so strong that my eyes became watery. Was I crying?

My last memory from yesterday was at a party at a friend of Janice. It was really close to her home in Manhattan so we had walked there. It was a really nice summer night and I remember that we talked about what we would do this holiday.

I realized that I have to go to the bathroom. So I slowly put down my feet on the creamy, fluffy carpet, my legs looked almost as pale. Then I realized that I had some strange marks at my ankles. I tried to look down on my feet but my aching head stopped me.

Toilet first.

I had absolutely no idea where the bathroom where, I had never been here before.

I started to feel a little nervous, unease. But I had to pee. That was more important in that moment.

I opened the first door I found. Luckily it was a big toilet, with pink marbled walls and floors.

So I then entered and did what I had to do. But sitting there I looked out of the window. And then I felt like I freeze, a chilling sensation begun to creep up my spine.

What I saw outside was a big lake or something, mountains and some forest in the background. And all was covered with a lot of snow!
