I always feel that it super tough to come up with the perfect gift, especially if the person, who I want to spoil already has everything and doesn't want anything in particular or even worse, buys everything they want right away.

Wings
She had been blessed with natural beauty. He studied her sun-kissed face. There was not even the slightest hint of makeup. Yet, he felt that she was more beautiful than any girl that had ever been this close to him. "Hatchi" she sneezed. "Sorry", she muttered while trying to regain her original position. He smiled, … Continue reading Wings

Discovering a Drawing #WeeklySmile
Discovering a Drawing A few evenings ago I turned the page in my Moleskine and came across this little drawing: My Moleskin had been overtaken by my daughter. When she draws little circles they are either people or minions, probably a mixture of both. I am quite sure that her dad and I are both … Continue reading Discovering a Drawing #WeeklySmile
If we were having coffee – 9 April 2016
If we were having coffee, then as I do quite often, I would ask you to be quiet as a mouse. Little on is finally napping, it took ages to get there, so I don't want her to be prematurely woken.

I made myself confortable and let the colours flow onto the paper, I didn't have a specific image in my head. … Continue reading following the impulse
J is for Jump – A to Z Challenge April 2015
"Just go ahead and do it already!" Someone barked from behind Josephine. She looked around into a frog like face. "Erm," she stammered looking scared with her hands gripping the railing as if her life was at risk, "you go ahead". The unfriendly boy passed looking at her as if she was the biggest looser. … Continue reading J is for Jump – A to Z Challenge April 2015
The Artist
The Artist Magnetically attracted, she walked towards the woman sitting on a bench in the parc. As if she was an old acquaintance, an old friend, a member of our family.
