private lessons

It's happened again, hasn't it? That resolution to blogg every day has already fallen by the wayside...
My excuse is that last week was packed with stuff. Lots to do at work, courses, things to prepare for Saturday when I spoke at a Womens' breakfast in the Missionshuset chapel in Krokek, and so on..
Amongst other things I had a visit from Lena and Kerstin, two sisters who are wonderful artists and who came to my home for private lessons in oil-painting. Lena came all the way from Stockholm and Kerstin lives here in Norrköping. I took some photos of their work which I was given permission to put up here on my blog. Lena's picture is painted from an old black and white photo of herself when she was dressed as a wood anenome (vitsippa in Swedish) for a dance class. Her daddy took a photo of her in the corner of the garden where the flowers were growing - isn't it precious? I've never met anyone as careful a painter as Lena - but then she used to be a dentist so maybe that helps!
Kerstin has a completely different style, just as lovely but less detailed. She's painting a picture of herself standing on a little bridge over a stream - gorgeous colours! Thanks for a lovely couple of days, dear friends! / Jacqui
