My pictures don't do justice to just how beautiful it is here.
I'm relishing this time with my friend snapping pictures and dreaming.
The colors of her house are inspiring enough to feed an army of artists.
She's traveled a lot so it's filled with fun treasures from all over the world.
Hard at ARTING! Our new official word.
We visited a gallery on the other side of the island and were inspired by some work done by another artist. So we came back, pulled out the plaster and started playing.
I'm working on getting rid of the Norwegian flag. Just didn't look quite right.
I really like how the plaster soaks in heavier in some areas than others. And very easy to work with.
Janne's girl. Quite daring isn't she. A girl with major attitude.
We also visited the oldest church in Norway, Moster Church.
Lots of pretty important Norwegian history has taken place here.
Viking Stew, based on what they believe the Vikings ate way back when.
Salted Lamb, veggies and beans of some sort. Pretty tasty actually.
And don't worry about me eating enough...
one word.
BROWNiES!











Really Really cool looking pics and it looks like you are having a blast, good to see. Hi Janne, Thanks for having her!
