Copenhagen: Sne-Sol

 

Sne Sol: a self-built wooden house in the alternative community Christiania, Copenhagen. All houses here were self built. I talked with one of the inhabitants: all houses had their own names, like: the red dragon, Buddha's lounge, the pentagon etc. According to him Sne-sol meant: the sun reflecting in the snow. A beautiful name.

Copenhagen: Nyhavn

 


I made three drawings in Copenhagen, this was the last one. A beautiful old harbour with coloured houses, very pretty. But it was very very cold, my fingers where aching when I finished the ink work. I knew the watercolour wouldn't dry, it usually spoils the drawing. So I decided to colour it digitally at home. Done with Gimp.

Copenhagen

 

After the meetings in Malmö I took a day off to visit Copenhagen, just across the water. This is a church with a peculiar twisted tower, near Christiania, the "Vor Frelsers Kirke".
