It's a tradition in the area where Mormor and Morfar lives, to have 'Konstrunda' during the Easter weekend. Many of the local artists and craftspeople open their studios, ateliers and workshops for the afternoons, with special offers on. You pick up a map, and have many options to go feed your soul, viewing many different kinds of artworks and handcrafted items.
Lucas was only staying over the weekend as he had school to get back to, so before we took him to the train Monday afternoon, we decided to go visit some of these places. Like Löfwings, one of the biggest and most well known studios.
I enjoyed the outdoor exhibition with prints of some of his works. They looked even more beautiful placed like this, framed by nature.
Mormor found a painting of the farm where she grew up as a little girl:
Mormor and Morfar live in The Crane Kingdom. Lake Hornborga is perhaps Sweden’s most well-known bird lake. Every spring, thousands of cranes gather and dance here; and they inspire many of the artists of the area, Löfwing included. He had placed a whole heap cardboard cranes around his house.
