An old apple tree

This what an old apple tree looks like, but it gives me good apples in the autumn anyhow.

I think it is beautiful - even if it's not supposed to look lite that, I know.

Here you can se one of the apple trees in my garden with their blossoms:

Flowers of spring

Finally! The sun is shining and it is getting warmer. The flowers of spring is coming and my lawn is now full of these two.

These blue ones is called Scilla siberica, and they are so nice to have in the garden.

And these are called Gulsippa in Swedish, or yellow Anemone - Anemone Ranunculoides.

My mother - in ceramic

This is my mother Gunvor and her sister Marie Louise in ceramic, as hildren. My mother made this one as a memory of her childhood in Finland.

So this statue made after a photo taken in Helsinki where she and her sister grew up with her father.
Her mother died after an illness at a rather young age, so they where looked after by the lovely Elsa.

Head of baby

One more of my mother's work. This is a ceramic head of a young child.  If I'm not remember wrong its is a child of one of my mothers friends.

And then we have this mini carpet, made for hanging on the wall. It is made of wool and of course made by my mother Gunvor.

She did it with inspiration fom the sea, as you can see.

Smoking statue

Smoking kills, you could end up like this!!! If you look closely you can see a lit cigarette in one hand.

The sitting man is placed at Hötorget, just outside PUB department store. The same store where Greta Garbo once worked.

A candle holder

And this is another work of my mother Gunvor, one of her own favourites, a couple of candle holders in ceramic.

They are also handpainted and and handmade, of course. Perfect to hang on a wall, these are just hung on rusty nails.

More Stockholm

Here is two more pics from Stockholm, the city where I live and work. The first picture is of Sergels Torg, the most central public square in town.

You can see a glass obelisk, made by Edvin Öhrström, under it there is a water fountain in the summer.

And here is a photo of Drottninggatan in central Stockholm, is one of the main shopping streets.
