Back on track....?

Tina Jonsbu

I am finally trying to pull my exhausted self out of my skin and on to "Paper".

The Bachelorette party was a success! An Island weekend filled with poetry, skinny dipping, dancing, great food, sailboat trip in rough sea with added galgen humor, laughter, laughter, laughter. 20's bathing suits for all 25 girls. (2 fell of to pregnancy nausea...) Champagne and Party, Party, Party, no sleep but so much love! Ah, I feel extremely lucky to have all these gorgeous Women in my life.

While I was in Oslo my Mother gave me our wedding gift a little early and it is a drawing by Tina Jonsbu (like the one above). Daring in it's simplicity. I LOVE IT! Thank you Mamma for going to the artists studio and pick one out for me, and thank you Tina for being so nice:)

Other than that there has been little "Art" experiences lately. But tomorrow I have some exciting shows that I will try to hit... so stay tune!!

Love, Kristin

A clean slate!

It´s Monday and I am feeling like hosting a new beginning. Something simple, something light and bright. I have been thinking of these drawings by Tina Jonsbu for a while. My wonderful and warm friend Kirsten from Gjennom Ordene made me aware of her since we are all from the same small town Eidsvoll in Norway.

Last week I concentrated on the dark side of art, this week I am at least beginning with light! Then we will just see where my mind and experiences will lead me. Life is full of surprises:)

These drawings have a wonderful precision, like a mathematical beauty.

I find that Tina Jonsbu is an Artist full of vigorous control. If you want to see more of her work check out her website here!

With that I wish you a fabulous week!

Today, will be my last day in the wonderful and crazy world of wedding dresses. Tomorrow I will have to make a decision. 

With Love Kristin
