New Year 2012

Today, the first full moon of the year and the first day back to work in the studio proved much more like new year’s day than any other before.

I am very excited by the new paintings and have secured a lovely showcase for them in Galleri Wendelboe in Bergen in October 2012 .. the series, whose title is yet to be confirmed, is operating right now under the auspices of UP.

A sneak peak of some of the paintings that heretofore have been created are below. Comments are appreciated. Especially since this is quite a departure from my rain paintings and the paintings of the snow. Here I am looking from the view point of the main mode of transport this year (or at least the biggest) and that is from Airplane windows. i love the view up in the clouds. The first time I was ever in a plane i distinctly remember this man sleeping and I wanted to wake him and shout “You’re missing heaven!” but people who travel a lot can take the breathtaking vantage point of 15,000 ft for granted. The whole expanse of the sky is there and this miracle of transport is flying right through the source of all the rain on the ground. I love it. The colours excite me up there and like a child with a stick of sherbert I have been drawing and videoing landings and take-offs and all the bits in between for the last year and the exhibition will be a result of this.

Hope people are as fascinated with the journey as I was.

All the best,

Helen :)
