Books read

I try to sort my readings into different shelfs, but truth be told – I am not very consistent. These might be of interest:

  • All time favorites‎

  • A list of books on creativity: Goodreads – on making

  • A list of books on nature: Goodreads – on nature

  • A list of my books on art: Goodreads – on making

Dreary Drawing no 7 - The unmanned petrol station — #dreary #drawing #sketch #unmanned #sketchbook #usk #urbansketch #urbansketchers #watercolour #fineliner #farmstead #hundvåg #petrolstation #circlek #statoil #oil #petrol I have set myself a November challenge - Its about sketching dreary places (and I don’t mean exciting derelict spaces - but rather ordinary, dull, insignificant places). Places so lacking in interest as to cause mental weariness... You might ask: Why? Why sketch contemporary grimness? I will try to do it because ugliness is a big part of our shared surrounding - and so if my sketches are going to have any affinity with my life, dreariness has to become a part of it.
