good morning my dears,
this is another messy post!

The boi is on a ship once again, soon 6 weeks in, but I had a cheeky break in stockholm for two days.
I got my first like of a foreigner on @markkukakkula, that was wonderful!
I am painting a lot and there is new posts on the gram:))
Painting is what keeps me sane on here.

I remembered a dream:
I was ‚fighting‘ of three lions, they came towards me and I was just screaming at them.
Those three lions turned out to be middle aged men and then whole thing was situated in a supermarkets entrance.
after enough screaming, the lions backed up and a shopworker opened the little gates for them to enter the shop.
I wonder if that dream has any sort of meaning?
i usually don’t remember my dreams, so that was fun for me

here is a three images I want to share with you

1. the ship feeding Etna, a volcano, with smoke
2. my painting setup in my cabin
3. the shortest boi, I took this picture a while ago and just found it again, I like it
   svarta golvet cirkus Cirkör
   
   

thank you for taking your time, I really appreciate you!!

with love from kusadasi, turkey

Good morning!
the moon is a beautiful thing!
capturing all its beauty with a phone camera is not doing it justice.
(insert inspiring and poetic phrase about beauty and living in the present)
me and my secret collaborator still took snapshots of the moon, being fully aware they are ugly
I still thought it was important to put them on the internet.
maybe it can serve as a reminder to look for the moon in your life, it is beautiful when you see it with your eyes!!

I dont have more wise art thoughts to share today

but please follow @markkukakkula for all my painting content

have the best of days
warmth
allt gott

welcome
I am in vaggeryd
it feels like spring is here, I didn’t even take my scarf with me on this three day trip
(its probably not true and there will be more snow at some point, but one has to stay optimistic)
so here is a collection of my best scarf wraps of the winter 2025/2026, enjoy

Finally the boy is back.
Right now I am in Paris, but i felt obliged to give you a little recap of the time bewteen South-Korea and now, Paris.

not in chronological order (not in any order (only the best order they found (my computer found (brackets are fun))))

1. My phone background has a mean face now
2. I found a dead butterfly in my parents basement when moving furniture, a sad memory of summer
3. somebody gave up on being the fastest cuber in Alby, sadness!!
4. Ramulul fighting the snow like no one else
5. a tree in an orange dress ( as I said, we are not following a chronological order here
6. shapes the ice made on the Alby lake
7. the sun at noon in alby on the 9th of january 2026 (its a bit low for my taste)
8. i thought this could turn out a good picture
9. I believe my door is having problems (luckily I dont live in a train-toilet)
10. Alby at night
11. Ice (ice baby)
    
    Many things happened in alby
    also I was juggling and painting (if you are interested in seeing my paintings consider giving @markkukakkula a follow on instagram)
    
    I will go further to Tahiti in a few days, more updates on that will follow.
    I appreciate all you consistent readers of this wonderful blog
    
    there is many great things I wish you, snow and love and stuff and things
    
    take care of yourself
    
    

the boy was in Korea for a week
played Marmalade, by Claire Parsons co. in Busan and then had 2 days of holidays in Seoul
this is a nearly complete collection of the meals and snacks I had there
finishing of the trip with the most sad airplane food I’ve ever had

yesterday there was a meeting, 7vagnar is officially dead, time for sadness and new plans

until next time
