Wood figures

Colleagues

The conductor and stationmaster are done. And a tin toy from my stuff shelf.

I ran out of wood and I´m already suffering from abstinence symptom.

Inspiration

Waldemar Sjölander

I grew up wit a lot of Waldemar Sjölander (read more here if you understand Swedish) on the walls. My dad knew him from Gothenburg when they were young and he has written a book about him. I was 13 when I traveled with my dad and visited his home and studio in Mexico City (I was a bit too young for this adventure, beeing more interested in getting a tan on the roof than study his sculptures). My dad is thinking of what to do with his collection so I went out today to note down my favorites. Some images are details and it is lithographs, pen-and-ink drawings and gouaches. I love them.

I just realized that I have only uploaded women, he did work with other motifs aswell.

Inspiration

An orange post

I like orange and brown as you may have understood so I had to buy the bag on top from Kattching, a web shop where you can buy stuff done by vintage fabrics. The rest is just orange details from my home and old children´s books.
