Beautiful  

I was wondering, do you have your own home/flat gallery with your works hanging on the wall? Some artists prefer to create rather than look at their works, like many actors don't watch their movies after they're done... In your case, you have so much works that for me it would be hard to choose the best to hang on. Do you have your favorite peace? In my case, I picked four of my newest drawings and framed them couple of years before. I also have two old and unfinished pieces of about A1 size hanging on different walls, which I would like to finish some day, but they're not the best one just were to big to hide them somewhere

Thank you very much!
It's the first time someone ask me that question, and I admit I never really thought about it before... I currently don't live in my own home ; moreover, as it's a renting, I can't make holes to hang all I want, and I must add I'm quite lazy and don't take the time to buy frames, etc... We only hang canvas because they are light, but they are quite old (I did them when I was 17 or 18), but I try to replace them little by little, with this one for example.
I think I'm more a person who prefers to create than to hang artworks.
But now, I've received many artworks from the whole world, by very talented artists, via art trades or purchases or as gift, then I think that if I could, I would hang these artworks in priority (:
To choose a very favourite piece would be indeed quite impossible though I think it would be among these ones :
My heart is beating, still
Svartsjuk
Raevflickan
Garden of Oblivion
Mystery of death before us

A1 size is just so huuuuuge I understand they aren't finished!! It's a bit the same principle than for my canvas, too big to be hidden, then on the wall ^^
It's a bit a pity for the smaller pieces, which are "sleeping" in cardboards and files... From time to time I take them and watch them one by one, and it's nice to notice the improvement, and it also makes me want to make "remakes"... just like here (:

I used to lived in a renting flats, so as soon as I got my own place ~7 years ago, I was finally free to hang on whatever I want Now I have so much stuff that's almost impossible to buy anything new, and my walls were the first to be occupied.

From those five you mentioned I would pick the first one. It's the closest to my heart, since I would imagine the man there is actually a spirit, and I truly believe each of us have at least one, guarding spirit, so no human is ever alone.

May I ask why you use a Swedish title? Im just curious? Its a super beautiful painting, you are soooo skilled! <333333

Sieskja In reply to Escaron [2016-03-16 17:37:05 +0000 UTC]

Haha, interesting question (:
I considered that this painting, which illustrates a story which takes place in a viking time-like universe, deserved a scandinavian title. I studied Swedish some years ago and found some poems by Edith Södergran in my old papers, and as I like using poetic verses as title for my paintings (: Unfortunately DeviantArt doesn't like special letters.
Tack för din kommentar!!

Aaahaaaaaaa then I understand! And I think its really cool that you do it like that, but yes, its annoying we arent allowed to use å, ä and ö in the titles cause sometime Ive also wanted to do that haha. Thank you for explaining! <3

Ingen orsak, jag älskar dina konstverk!

Varsågod (: Det är också mycket frustrerande för mig, att jag inte kan skriva é, è, ë, ù etc.... när jag vill ge en titel på franska..... è.é
Jag tycker att studera andra språk är spännande (även om jag inte är så duktig), men jag tror att svenska är språket jag föredrar (:
Tusen tack

Hahaha neeeeej det tror jag inte Jag fortfarande behöver en ordbok, mycket ofta, och faktiskt jag har glömt mycket mycket grammar och vokabulär... det är ganska sorgligt... Jag borde läsa och skriva på svenska oftare!
Jag har också studerat danska, en lite norska, en lite lite islenska (så jag blandar en lite allt!), tyska en lång tid sedan, och nederländska... men faktiskt jag kan bara franska, engelska och en lite svenska
Tack för dina vänliga ord, det är mycket snällt

Norwegian would be something like "Landet som ikke er", or am I wrong?

Ah, well I guess it just sounds similar. I'm not norwegian so I wouldn't know of the changes in spelling. ^^'
