NEW FIELD-PAINTINGS FROM PULKEN

2021-01-01 Inside the alder dominated swamp forest growing in the river Helge Å's former riverbed. Until 1774 Helge Å ran here. By 1775 a new riverbed formed as a consequence of an almost too successful draining attempt. This forest is used by mammals as a north-south going highway. It is criss-crossed by trails made by wild boars. Moose often move through the forest, and in some periods they also use it as a daytime roost. Water colour on 270 g paper in note book.

2020-12-29 The central part of Pulken. The water in the foregrund is part of the very small, but permanent lake. What looks like an island out in the lake is actually a mat of floating vegetation. The swampy area in central Pulken is being taken over by reeds, a development that I find rather boring. Possibly the spreading reedbed is a consequence of two successive rather wet summers and two very mild winters. Oil colour on acid-free cardboard
