Painted while having breakfast in Brumunddal, Norway. There have been some minus degrees Celcius during the past nights. Next week it will be warmer, I hope.

Berlínarblogg 4
Sketches from my trip to Berlin in March 2019.
1. Monument about the part the Soviet army had in conquering Berlin and bringing the nazi regime to its surrender.
I was raised up in opposition to communism during the cold war and with good reasons. My family were for freedom and justice. We must oppose all radical movements and ideas from left and right, from religions and ideologies who can harm healthy democracy which has taken the world ages to develop.
2. A boat in the Spree river, Berlin.
3. A good starter at Begur restaurant with a spanish style.
4. At St. Thomas Church Berlin.
5. Jazz in Berlin. Our second concert during the 4 days I stayed with my son.

Nýjar teikningar. Nye tegninger. New sketches.
On Saturday March 23, 2019 I met some members of the Urban Sketchers Oslo group. We met at Svanen Bar which is a former drug store – Apotheke established in 1628.
We drew the interior and people.
After the sketching session I found Fiskeriet, a fantastic fish restaurant in Oslo, and had a wonderful Fish and Chips. The Norwegian cod tasted so good it could even have ben caught in Icelandic waters surrounding my homeland!
The first sketch was a little precise. The second more free and the rest also. I needed to warm ups and then take off!

Ljóðahátíð – Poesi festival – Festival of poems
Var í Hamri laugardagskvöldið 9. mars þar sem ég hlýddi á norrán ljóðskáld lesa úr verkum sínum. Þar á meðal var Gerður Kristný sem gaman var að hitta og unnun að hlýða á. Osksar Vistdal, þýðandi sem kenndi mér norsku á Íslandi fyrir næstum 30 árum var þar einnig og við áttum saman góðan fund.
Ég reyndi að fanga skáldin. Náði ekki öllum en þau sem rötuðu á síðuna bið ég að taka viljann fyrir verkið.
