Have much fun and don't pull your hair out!

ReplyDeleteThanks Phil, my great hope is that this will be a new one to everybody...... ;O)
DeleteThis artist is completely new to me too. As Phil says - great choice and something different. Thanks Mai-Britt.

ReplyDeleteThese less known artists are great fun to interpret. Super choice Mae-Britt . Thanks
ReplyDeleteMai-Britt this is a really great choice. I am a happy bunny. His style is not dissimilar to one of my other choices, Morandi, and I know I am not the only one who likes his work. I am going to enjoy learning about Lundstrom.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the video AND the cartoon!

ReplyDeleteI love the colours and shapes. Thanks Mai-Britt.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mai-Britt. I like his use of colour - this is going to be fun. It was interesting to see his development in the utube clip.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to learn all about this new artist! Even though these artist themed challenges are so difficult for me, I so enjoy the personal depth of learning about each artist.
