Last Blogpost gave you inside pictures of my Summer Residence. Today I have the pleasuer to show you that I also do the painting of the cottage walls outside. A new layer of white is needed due to the hard winter, and hopefully will some of the men connected to my daughters do the refreshing of the tar-brown edges during their stay at the cottage in the summer.
Or, if the weather condition continues (plus 21.9 C today), I may do it in the coming week.

At the Summer Residence

Every year when spring turns into summer we start to make preparations for the stay at Tullarbo; our Summer Residence. The cottage is located almost at the geographical center of Oslo, close to Svartkulp east of Sognsvann, and far away from the City Centre where we live the rest of the year as neighbours to the Royal Castle.
The garden is not jet made ready for flowers, and the fruit trees have still some weeks until blooming, but an exhibition showing some of the paintings (acrylic on canvas) worked out since last summer can be seen on the cottage walls in the living “room” and the dining “room”. Well, we should not call it rooms since the total area is only 30 square meter, but the paintings are there on the walls.
