... Since I last posted a journal entry. The passed year has been filled with all the new experiences that comes with becoming a parent, and I haven't had as much time or energy to pour into my paintings as I would have liked to. Anyhow, I'm now officially on parental leave, which seem to be even more time-consuming. I'm gonna try to discipline myself and find time to paint whenever I can.
I don't know how many of my watchers read these journals, but I'd like to know if any of you would like me to maybe update these more often and write about my process and thoughts in general? I'm also wondering if any of you are following me on instagram/facebook. I tend to post wip-pics there if anyone is interested.

And the winner is...
…Megan Clarke aka Ghost-Apple.http://ghost-apple.deviantart.com/
I chose Megans text because it illustrates her own personal journey into discovering my art and it's also a nice summary of what my art is all about.
- My favorite piece of yours to this day still has to be "The Slut". It was my first experience with your interesting, often filthy yet always fun art. You show this utterly adorable little deer in a minimal scene with beetles crawling about with what hit me at first as a shocking name. Of course being the curious person I am I decided I had to do a little further investigating of the artist behind such a whimsical piece. From th
Gratitude...
... Is what I feel towards all the people who keep motivating me, here on DA, by following, favoritizing and commenting on my pieces. I do this stuff on my sparetime, but it is much more than a hobby. Expressing myself through art is what keeps me anchored in a feeling of selfworth and purpose. Recieving feedback and acknowledgement, in any shape or form, fuels me to throw myself into the next project. With your help I keep growing and getting better. For this I thank each and every one of you.
So... As a way to properly thank at least ONE of you, I am hereby announcing a small contest. The prize will be a digital portrait of the winner, som
