One of the things closely connected to feeling low is weight issues. Living in a society that prefer gazelles is not always easy.

When you feel like a whale it is no fun living a life as a land creature. Depression leads to inactivity and and urge for chocolade for those of us who do not stop eating alltogether when felling low of course. Inactivity leads to weight gain. Activity reduces depression. All this we know but the bad circle is very hard to break.

Some days I wish I was a sea creature because they look so graful and strong. Those days I find it sad that we do not have a swimming pool where I live. They have been talking about it for at least 40 years, but it has all been talk.

Finding the right path to follow is not always finding the wide motorway. Sometimes we have to dare enter narrow and scary places where we risk getting hurt.

In addition when we want to do the morally right things then too the path tend to become much narrower.

On bad days, our choices seem to us to be very few - we feel that our only option is following narrow paths because all other ways are locked either by ourselves or by others, maybe by financial or health issues and sometimes our own mind plays tricks on us and only shows us the narrow path.

Anyway, travelling those narrow path, no matter whether it is a temporary thing just to get out on the other side or what our life feels like, is a part of life where company is a very nice thing to have.

When I started working on this one, all I knew was that this figure was jumping. Originally I wanted the person to jump out of joy but as some of you probably has realized my figures tend to turn out nasty or lonely or not happy at all for some reason. Well, I guess that means that my style in figure painting is semiabstracts showing strong emotions often with subjects that many of us prefer not to think about. Whether any of them will be saleable I do not care.

I really experienced tonight how cultural differences can make communication difficult. I said something I meant as a huge compliment and unfortunately due to bad wording and cultural insensivity on my part I ended up hurting a lady I would not for the world hurt. I have appologized and I ask you to pray or cross fingers depending on your preference that she will forgive me because I would hate it if this escalates.

I write in English but I am Norwegian and English is my second language and I might insult without meaning it. Please if I should happen to write something that you feel is hurtful in any way then email me and I will immedeately try to fix it.


In this painting I chose to focus on the cultural and lingvistic differences between Men from Mars and Women from Venus.
