Thursday

Today was another quick sketch from Amsterdam. Down from our apartment last summer they had this cool café, where all the tables were spread out along the side of a bridge. The color of the umbrellas caught my eye, so I figured it would be worth a smaller painting first just to see if it could work on a larger scale. I’ll bring it to the crit tonight and see the consciences.

Seems like every afternoon there is a list of things to do before we leave for Sweden, buy this and that and taking care of all those small errands that need to be done. We had a pile of stuff that we dragged off yesterday to the “Deseret Industry”; one of those organizations that cleans up cloths and sells them for pennies on the dollar to those in need. The car was loaded up all the way.

I was contacting an old Swedish friend yesterday and saw this picture on his facebook. It’s soooo bizarre that I just had to share it, actually he did a good job setting it up ! Way to go Bjorn!!!
