Where THIS actually started for real….

I turned 40 6 weeks after moving back to Denmark after 11 years in London. And arranging a party was the last thing on my mind. I was so busy setting up the flat!

But then I panicked last minute and thought that I can't just sit on my own on my birthday, so I quickly booked a restaurant, and started ringing people to hear if they would come. I got about 25 people together which was just perfect!

Then my guests of course also started asking what I wished for, and I couldn't really think of anything! But then it hit me that I should ask for "stuff for painting". And Oh My God, I got a lot of stuff! I also got some vouchers, for a really nice local art shop, so I went down for a snoop, and grabbed some random stuff. One of them was a bottle of tusch, and I had no idea what I was going to do with that.

But then soon after, I just opened the bottle and started dripping it on to a canvas, and I got so excited. I just absolutely LOVED the way the tusch drew big fat lines on the surface as it made it self its way down, dragged by gravity. It is making one hell of a mess, but who cares! I added a bit of white acrylics to before i started dripping on the paint, which makes the tusch behave a little different. God it was fun!

And here is the first attack with tusch, its hanging in my living room now.
