Dear Friday,
Walking the morning in a meadow by a lake next to my home. A rain shower turned everything to a deeper brightness of a color and myself very wet. Summer rains are best of kinds. Snails, silent birds and sound of the lake while raindrops touch its surface.
A framer in a corner shop a few blocks away has hands of million stories. I tried to imagine all the pictures his hands have framed in his life.
The painting he framed for me this time is a wedding gift for a childhood friend with who we had a secret club called Mikki. We had a secret language, secret notebooks and secretly we recorded our parents´ conversations. Those secrets never revealed, even to us.
Have raindrops on roof and a bit of sunshine for your weekend!
P.s. Lately I got many emails and comments asking if I sell my work. I do, please just email me! There will be also a small online shop very very soon!
Thank you for writing and painting flowery meadows and rainy showers on wooden ground. Have a sunny weekend too, dear Anna Emilia. I am curious about your online shop!

ReplyDeleteI look forward to your shop opening!

ReplyDeletevau noita kesäkukkia!
ReplyDeleteon vähän ikävä kukkia ja järviä ja kesäsateita. mutta täällä on paljon pikkuisia kukkaruukkuja ja purnukoita ja hienoja puita. ootan vielä että pääsisi bambumetsää katsomaan.
kukkaista kesäviikonloppua!
I always love checking up on your blog because you post some of the most amazing works and most of it is so simple and quirky as well.

Your painting is splendid ! have a nice week end dear Anna Emilia !
ReplyDeleteHei, löysin tänne ekaa kertaa. Sinulla on aivan upeita töitä, ihastuin.
ReplyDeleteHi Anna Emilia, in her litte 'let's get personal' interview on the blog Bloesem Flora mentioned your blog as one of her absolute favourites. I had to have a little peek of course and now I am sitting here still in amazement.Your work is just so beautiful. If you start selling it or prints of your work please include the series of 'Ingria' and 'daily matters'. The illustrations of Ingria's story are really 'heart-catching' and having worked with autistic children the 'daily matters' series, especially the one where the boy looks at all his shoes and the one where he plays alone at the pond are illustrated so very spot on.
ReplyDeletePlease don't wait to long before opening your shop. I'll be standing in line!
Best wishes,
Hedy
Hello Anna. I was passing by your blog and thought that i would leave a note to say hello. In Melbourne now the Autumn colours are leaving for another year, and winter is slowly coming in. It looks like you are enjoying the Spring in Finland. Your new painting is wonderful too. All the best, Ben.
ReplyDeleteDear Andrea,
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my little weather diary! Makes it very lovely to have you here.
Just a bit more of waiting is needed for the online shop! But I promise, it is on its way (:
Last weekend was wonderful, filled with cat paws and grass between toes. Hopefully you had a good weekend and beginning of this week too!

Dear Flora,
Thank you so much! It was a delicious weekend, with rhubarb pie and a bun on a square market and another in a high tower. A lot of good dark bread and the first strawberries!

Dear Maggie,
I hope she will remember the moments when we stood in rubber boots in a field (did not suite her a city girl that much) and the time we played tennis (did not suite me a countryside girl that much) when watching that picture.
Thank you for your visit!

Thank you kindly Veja Cecilia!

Hei Hannanen siellä maassa joka täältä käsin on nurinpäin,
Kaikki kesasiat varmasti jatkuu myös ensi kesänäkin, nauti nauti siellä nyt vain!
Luvattiin ukkosta ja sadetta, vaan paistaa vaan. Hieman jo odottelen niitä, silloin aina maalaus sujuu vikkelään, kun voi laittaa villasukat takasin jalkaan ja kaupunki hiljenee.
Terveisiä purnukka- ja ruukkumaahan!
…
Dear Artpixie,
Thank you so very much for your kind words, I will remember them!
It would be lovely, maybe you want to ask me something where I can then answer. I will write to you!

Dear Ben,
Thank you for your hello! Hello Ben!
It is already summer here, feeling a bit early for this year. A lot of sun, a lot of warmth, gentle winds and so many birds. A small fox also last night visiting again on the yard.

Have a good Thursday Ben!
