2012

Afgelopen jaar heb ik 26 berichten geplaatst. In 2009 waren het er 200 meer...
Heb ik weinig nieuws of was ik gewoon te druk? Beide denk ik...
Afgelopen dagen raakte ik weer geprikkeld door een groot fotografen koppel!
Dat ik ineens zin heb in een nieuwe camara en mijn mobiel weer ga gebruiken om te bellen...

Ik wens iedereen hele mooie laatste dagen van het jaar 2012
en voor 2013

Laat je bevangen door de schoonheid van licht!


Tot volgend jaar.

Breiwerk

Sinds 1955 heeft Loes Veenstra meer dan 500 truien gebreid!
Christien Meindertsma fotografeerde ze allemaal en maakte er een boek van!



To celebrate Christien organized a flashmob!
Klik hier voor de flashmob

Since 1955, Loes Veenstra knitted over 500 sweaters that she stored in cardboard boxes in her home.
The sweaters had never been worn.

Olifantenpaadjes

Olifantenpaadjes...i saw the book some time ago while i was in Paris and it was something...fascinating.
Never heard of before but so 'regular' it stayed in mind. Everytime i see this 'elephant-path' (desire-lines)
i wanted to know more about it.





So i found this video. You have to watch this. Sorry that it's in dutch.

Olifantenpaadjes from Jan-Dirk van der Burg on Vimeo.

Here you can find out all about it.

Sam

Sam is in our life for more than 6 months now...he really is a member of our family so i was quite in shock when i heard he was in an accident. Hit by a car while playing and running like a youngster after a chestnut. On thursday i went to a specialist to have a look at his leg, but it couldn't be saved...so now we have a very special dog. From now he will live his life with 3 legs. We are all just very happy he's still with us! But it is a sad story.

Autumn

Great about autumn is the harvest. I started to sow again. I am studying again. I will be an art- teacher in two years time. Hope to have a great harvest then, i have to grow in this way of life...

Summer

So i guess i can't resist next year...

Thank you MUS
& Thank you Santenkraam
En al dat blond-harige-tuig voor zoveel gezelligheid!

Summer

Well... It has been more than 3 months since i have written down something. It has been a busy time with our dog, our cats and we were busy celebrating summer. I hope my computer with all the photographs will be reconnected to the worldwideweb... Me and the kids have just a couple of days left before school starts again. For them, but for me aswell! Back to school. So hope to see you soon.... X

Moulding

Working with my hands with another material.
I do like this a lot.
Experience the material and letting go the idea of making something.
I have to know what i'm working with first.
But of course i have some ideas...


And the twin is born! Welcome Rixt and Dytmer!




♥

Oh boy...

The young one...he is in for some adventures...so the first finger was broken!
He is doing fine and he managed to do most of the things he normally does.
And now without the plaster, he can do everything again...(he thinks!)
So 2 days ago he was playing again around the water....he fell in and decided to swim across!
With all his clothes and winter jacket!

His friend was impressed. I'm curious about the other adventures to come...

Popsicle

My friend Ingrid has made her first product! "Pile me up", she said and tomorrow there will be a presentation in Zwolle.
Popsicle is her design label, and more products to come. I really like her own hand in all her work, like the coffe/wine on top.
She did a lot of work for television and film aswell with her other company Zijwind...so check her out!

--Op zaterdag 14 april van 11:00 uur tot 16:00 uur wordt designlabel Popsicle op een ludieke manier in Zwolle gelanceerd.
In de etalages van Bang & Olufsen, NoaNoa en Casual Friday in de Luttekestraat, worden de belevingswerelden van Popsicle vertaald in een decor met levende etalagepoppen.
Tijdens deze lancering presenteren we ons eerste product; zitelement “Pile me up”, she said--
