Bookbinding!

Since the new term started, I have been spending a lot of time in the bookbinding workshop. Not simply because I want to improve my skills, but also as it is a really meditative activity. I have spend so much time with my head barried in books and sitting in front of the screen while writing my dissertation and doing my other work, and it feels really good to start in the morning and then go home with something in the evening.

Today I used the time making two books, both binded in dark blue velvet, which is a color I really feel in love with while doing it because of the light reflecting surface. One was a little photo-book and the other a simple notebook.

My goal is to go in once a week, and I wonder what exiting thing I will come up with for next weeks session.

Going through the Archive!

I was looking through all my photos from 2013, to see which ones I wanted to make a print of, and it made me realize how many great pictures I never showed here.

This one was taken in August at Esrum Sø, and if I remember correctly I was carrying a big ice-cream in the other hand while trying to juggle the camera with the other.

I am longing a bit for summer this moment, maybe because I can't wait for it to come.

Very Early Signs Of Spring!

Today I went for a walk, in the opposite direction than I usually go when I follow the canal, to see where it would lead me. I saw the first signs of spring, which is somehow really creepy since we are only end of January. I do not miss the cold but I also don't want the spring to come and disappear too soon. I ended up having a cup of coffee at Cooper & Wolf and made it home in time before an evening shower began.

Flat White!

A beautiful and well made cup of coffee deserves a picture.
Have a great weekend everyone.

West London!

Today I went to Victoria and Sloane Square. I had an errand around Victoria and decided to use the opportunity to go and visit Saatchi gallery where they were having an exhibition on body language. Like last time I was in the neighborhood it was slightly drizzling and the sky was grey so it was perfect to seek shelter in the amazing space of the gallery.

The Heart Collection no. 72-78!

My latest hearts have been long overdue, so here is a range all the way back from November until after New Years.

The Jewish Museum!

I really like the architecture of the Jewish museum in Berlin. We passes by it on a sunny afternoon and with the reflection, all the corners and edges, the building looked even nicer.

Rays of Light!

I love in wintertime, when the sunshine comes creeping in and make subtle shapes of light on the wall.

Bunt!

When the sky is grey is it always nice with a colorful city.
