grow - a miracle

Here you see a watering can watering some grass.

You shouldn't believe that - that's not quite right. At the image above you can look across the earth as with x-ray. What you see here is a miracle, not less. You see the birth of the Grassman.

Happy Birthday, Grassman!

my father and my mother's wedding

Here is my father and my mother at their wedding day the 10th of November 1951. I'm glad, that my father doesn't have those green stripes in his face - anymore :-)

wedding

autumn again

Here is a leaf from a hip plant - in danish: hyben. I like the yellow and pale green - isn't that beautiful?

I think, this little twig looks like a tree itself - amazing.

autumn

Here in Denmark autumn has begun. I always enjoy all the beautiful colors of the leaves at trees and bushes:

Above is an enlarged image of the leaf maple "downunder". Isn't it magic?

momentum

Coffee makes the world go around :-)

alphabets

The Grassman has never gone to school. In his world wasn't that necessary - nature and his friends were most important for him. But when he met his girlfriend, he saw that she loved to look in some paper with strokes in. She told him about the wonderful world, she met in the world of books. "If you want, I will show you how to read," she said.

Of course he would like it. He thinks, it's very difficult, but he will learn it, he will share reading with his girlfriend. Now he wonders, how the strokes in "GRASS" can mean his hair. "Strange," he said.

emergency!

depression may come ...

holiday

geeky image

I think, we can call this drawing a bit geeky.

Notice, that the smoke and the danish flag are not blowing in the same direction :-)

twist

No comment..

just for fun

Happy dog

Blue cat

Old mr. Green-Sheep

Here are some more images, where I use a photo and replace, convert the colors at the photo to my own colors. It's fun playing with colors, emotions etc.

camouflage

If geese could react as chameleons - change their colors after their surroundings - I think these two would do like this. They're hunted by the farmer, who want some goose roast. They want to live much longer, therefore they're hiding in front of the shawl of his wife. I wonder if he will find them?

This time I've made something quite different! I've used a photo of two geese and deleted the background. Then I replaced the colors at the photo with my own colors. Quite a slow, but funny process! The colors should correspond with the shadows etc. The shawl behind is just made with special brushes in Paint Shop Pro.

rejection

(continued from "sign", May the 27th, 2007)

Maybee the white rabbit has eaten too many carrots? He can't eat anymore, nor can his friends: The bluebird won't eat carrots. Porcu uses to eat quite a lot carrots, but he visits his new friend, Porcupi. The grassman and his girlfriend had eaten carrot-cake, carrot-bread, carrot-salats and fresh carrots, and now they won't have anymore. He had even asked the wasp. "No-one here want to eat anymore carrots, everybody rejects, too bad" he thinks.

Then he see the giraffe, the refugee from Africa. "Now he must help," the white rabbit thinks. "You upthere - here are some carrots" he said.

"No thanks," says the giraffe, "I don't eat carrots." "Aren't my carrots good enough?", the rabbit said. "I'm sure they are, but I only eat leaves from tall trees," the giraffe explains.

"Ah, that's why you have your long neck! I thought, you came here to steal my carrots," the white rabbit says, a bit ashamed. He would ask why he came here from Africa, but the giraffe was already gone. The giraffe walked quickly because of his long legs, and the white rabbit couldn't even walk with his big stomach. "One day I'll ask him, what he will do at our place," was the last, he thought, before he felt asleep.

suit

The grassman's girlfriend will buy a new t-shirt to him. He has got some new jeans, and now she will make it to a completely new suit. She doesn't want to see him in his old green and striped pyjamas-shirt, which has become too small for him.

But it is difficult to choose.

The black and grey t-shirt is cool. But is her grassman cool? No, not so much - or maybee? Does he want to be cool?

What about the blue one? Then it will be a completely denim suit. "Do I want a cowboy as my boyfriend?" she asks herself and smiles. A cowboy with grass-hair and grass-feet?

Or maybe he would be very trendy with the green one. But wouldn't it look foolish, if the grassman suddenly is trendy? Can grass-hair look trendy?

She can't decide which one to buy. He will be just the same good old grass-man no matter what t-shirt he wears, she knows. But if he doesn't like the new t-shirt, he will continue to use his very small, green striped pyjamas-shirt - and it's indeed not trendy! Once in a while she decides one - and then she regrets.

Anyone who can help?

the paradise of the grassman

This is so near paradise as it's possible - for the grassman...

It's summer. Butterflies fly around and disappear up in the sky. Dandelions show their star-seeds, before they're throwing them away to make new dandelions. At last, but not least, there are lots of green grass - foxtails, poas and other types of grasses. Nature is growing.


It's not a paradise for Felix, the cat. He wants to eat the bluebird. Luckily he can't catch her - else it would not had been a paradise for the bluebird. But what about Felix, must he be hungry? Not at all - he can get some cat-food, bought by the grassman's girlfriend. Any other suggestions?

car

One night the turtle can see a very mysterious thing. First it could look like a far too big turtle. When she comes closer, she can see, that it isn't a living thing. It's one of those boxes, who can contain things and living beings, move very fast and give a lot of noise. "This one is very beautiful," she thinks, "it reminds me of something I don't know." She walked slowly home again, while she wondered where she had seen these nice colors.

It is a present from the grassman to his girlfriend. "She is my very special star, and I'll give her a star-car. Then she can come faster out and faster home again," he said. He looks forward to give her the car and see the look in her face.

sign

(continued from "neighbour" May the 6th, 2007)
One sunny afternoon the white rabbit putted all his carrots in a pile. Soon he would get some new ones, therefore he would have a little "carrot party".

The bluebird saw the signs, he had made. "Why may animals with long necks not eat your carrots?" she asked. "Because – because - - all the carrots can be in their necks," the rabbit said.

The bluebird said, that was rubbish. "Why may the giraffe not eat your carrots?" she said directly. "That giraffe shall not come here from Africa and eat my carrots!" the rabbit shouted.

The bluebird got sad. "The giraffe have run away from home, because he was hunted by lions, and because his family mobbed him because of his crazy legs," she said.

The white rabbit didn't say anything. He looked at his signs, thoughtful. "But why does he come here," he said so quietly, that nobody heard him.

(to be continued)

neighbor

The very first time, the giraffe came to The Land of the Grassman, the first one he met, was a bluebird. "Hey, I'm your new neighbor," the giraffe said. The bluebird would like to know, where he came from. He said, he came from Africa - far, far away. "Why do you come here?", he asked.

The giraffe said, that he ran away from home, because there were dangerous lions there, and because his own family mobbed him because of his crazy, crooked legs. Now he would start a new life here.

"A family ought to support eachother. I feel sorry for you, that yours was so mean against you. Would you like to get a new family here?", the bluebird asked. "Oh yes, but are there many giraffes here?" he asked. The bluebird said: "No, but you can get us, the grassman and his friends, as your family."

"Thankyou very much, you're are so kind to me, " the giraffe said a bit more happy.

The bluebird only wished, that he would be welcome among all the other friends. He wasn't, but it's just another story.

remember

Porcu is back from his winter lair, and his new friend, Porcupi, is here too. Maybee you can remember, that Porcupi is the happy one? In fact, he has "infected" Porcu - his worried face is a bit less worried now.

The sheep is telling them about a magnolia branch, he once saw. "I remember, all of it was green and white. It was beautiful", the sheep says.

Porcu imagines, how the world was green: The big magnolia branch, the green grass and the green sky with stars. He is happy, because the sheep remember that, and because Porcupi visits him.
