Efter udstillingen på 'Tidens Kunst 2018' kom det nu til at passe med at udstille på Galleri 14 i Farsø.
Det er et flot, stort og velindrettet galleri, der altid har mange udstillende kunstnere, der endda også har forskellige udtrykformer. Der er således arbejder i olie og akryl maleri, keramik, glas, pileflet og trædrejning for at nævne nogle. n

Her byder Laila Eskedal velkommen 

Den 10. marts var der fernisering.

Der var en 40 stykker mødt frem til endnu en hyggelig eftermiddag.  Vi tre nye udstillere viste vores respektive udstillinger frem og fortalte lidt om vores arbejde.

Jeg vil foreløbig udstille i marts, april og maj måned.   

Denne måde at 'åbne' udstillinger er ved at blive en tradition, ligesom der altid er musikalsk underholdning og gode muligheder for at sidde og få en snak - også med en kop kaffe med kage.

For første gang deltog vi i 'Tidens Kunst', der er en årlig tilbagevendende weekendudstilling i messehallerne i Vesthimmerland.
Mere end 80 kunstnere udstillede malerier, skulpturer, glas, træ, fotos og keramik.

Vi fik solgt et maleri på udstillingen, så også på den front var det en succes.

Det var på mange måder en god oplevelse. Der kom mange interesserede besøgende, så der blev set på og snakket meget om malerierne, ligesom vi også fik snakket om mange andre ting.

Vi mødte også et par gamle venner, hvilket var meget fint, ligesom vi fik nogle nye bekendtskaber og hørte om muligheder og erfaringer med mange andre udstillingsmuligheder.

Vore naboer Karen og Anders kiggede også forbi. Det var som altid hyggeligt og spændende, bl.a. med en snak om focus i billederne.

De lykønskede med udstillingen og gav os en gave.

The silver wedding couple Annette and Ole take a look at their new painting: 'Travelling'.
This happened just at the start of the the cellebration, the party looking on.
  
The three of them - son Mathias can here be seen on the left side - in the painting he is sitting in between Annete and Ole in the canoe. The first leg of the waterway symbolises their first 25 years - around the bend the next 25 years are waiting for them.  

The painting was commisioned by Inge, Annettes mother. She can be seen to the left on the photo. 

Ole called on me to make some remarks on the work - I made some remarks on how the original photo had changed using symbolism of time, seasons, reflections and experiences changing between them and their surroundings in a wider sense.  
It turned out that both Ole and Inge used the painting in their speaches, which naturally made me proud and convinced me that this indeed is their silver wedding painting.

It has been a pleasure. There have been some very interesting nd heartfelt remarks on the painting, which in turn have made me see the painting in yet another light.

When we visited uncle Karl, he recived the painting 'Mik and Mik' as his 85 year birthday gift. I'm proud he and his daughters, Anneli and Helle, like the painting.

In the summer 2015 we met long time friends Else and Jonas.
We took the opportunity to give them an aquarelle. Here they take a look at their new 'Administrador' aquarelle.

Eva and Bård are taking a look at their painting(s) 'In the heartland of Angola'. We developed the idea for the paintings  together, based on the research work we collaborated on in Angola, 2009.

This research work with Eva really was an experience, very rewarding, which has benefitted us ever since. A heartfelt 'Thank you'!

Eva, Bård and I in the yard.
Anette took the picture once again!

The art association invited Tove and I to make an exhibition. We were pleased with this oportunity, as the tax authority building had amble space to exhibit many works at the same time and place. Wonderful.

The art assiciation and employees bought several works, so it became a very possitive experience.

Opening ceremony with speeches, music and songs.

Thomas Fabricius.
A friend from the time back at Nr. Nissum College, held the opening ceremony speech at the exhibition. He was an active member of the group of volunteers running the community lighthouse project. 

Bovbjerg Lighthouse is situated on the westcoast of Jutland.
It now serves as a community project with café, exhibitions, shop, circus, speeches, lectures and music.

The exhibition is open.
