It was bad weather again yesterday. Actually, it was really, really windy. This was the first time I painted together with Annika Berglund, my new plein air painting buddy! We were at the Natural History Museum, one of my favourite haunts when the weather isn’t great.
Yesterday, the weather was so bad in Stockholm. Wet and 13 degrees. I arranged with my friend Daniel Luther to meet at the Natural History Museum. We go there often during the winter, but this was the first time we visited during the summer. I painted a stuffed Woodland Kingfisher. I enjoyed myself. Oh yeah, it was the premiere for my new easel that I built just recently. I’ll talk more about that in the next post.

When the weather becomes too cold to paint outdoors, then museums are a great alternative. Ironically, one can’t escape the darkness, my headlamp helped.
It was so nice to go sketching with my Urban Sketcher friends last weekend. We visited the Natural History Museum here in Stockholm. I painted this in very dim light, luckily I had a little reading light with me.
