Simon M\u00f8kster Shipping newest offshore vessel just arrived to Norway from the building site in Spain. I made the art for her sister-ship, Stril Luna. And I am so proud to having been asked back to decorate her \u201ctwin\u201d. So let me introduce you to Still Mar:<\/p>\n

\"_MG_1728\"<\/p>\n

She\u00b4s looking a bit intimidating on that dry-dock, isn\u00b4t she? (I\u00b4ve actually never been onboard a ship on dry-dock, that in itself was interesting) But let\u00b4s go onboard!<\/p>\n

On the main-deck, you&amp;nbsp;have four common rooms&amp;nbsp; in a row. The mess, and three lounges like pearls on a string. The ship will most likely be working outside the Northern part of Norway, so part of the commission was to make art inspired from that part of Norway. Luckily I got some old photos that were very inspiring, and I worked with them.<\/p>\n

\"LOFTRR\"<\/p>\n

In the mess, a whole wall is filled with a big photo (not mine), so there wash\u00b4t room for much more. But I did manage to squeeze in a picture from Lofoten and winter-fishing.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_1698\"<\/p>\n

Some of the pictures seen from the mess into the lounge through a decorated window.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_1700\"<\/p>\n

Cod-fishing was big in Lofoten. Men from all along the coast travelled up North once a year to be part of the adventure and to earn a living.<\/p>\n

\"LofotenLinefiske\"<\/p>\n

Most of the fish was dried and exported, but some was of course sold locally. This is an old fish-market somewhere in Lofoten.<\/p>\n

\"FishyBuisness\"<\/p>\n

In another corner of the room, hangs this wooden boat.<\/p>\n

\"blue\"<\/p>\n

In the smokers lounge, I have this long picture from one of the towns in Lofoten.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_1691\"<\/p>\n

\"PanoramaLofoten\"<\/p>\n

A couple of decks down is the conference-room.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_1686\"<\/p>\n

Here hangs a series of light-towers. From H\u00e5 (near Stavanger), Lista (the very South of Norway), Haifa in Israel, Sl\u00e5tter\u00f8y in B\u00f8mlo and Port Townsend in the USA.<\/p>\n

The Captain has already moved into his cabin.<\/p>\n

\"_MG_1701\"<\/p>\n

He\u00b4s got two pictures. One of an old, wooden rowing boat from Os (Oselvar).<\/p>\n

\"birdboat\"<\/p>\n

And the other one is actually inspired by Svalbard and glaciers and some of the incredible though natural challenges these men and women had to cope with, way up here in the North.<\/p>\n

\"Svalbard-collage\"<\/p>\n

The chief also has a maritime setting, with the old fisherman and a much newer, wooden boat.<\/p>\n

\"3fold\"<\/p>\n

In the hall, on your way into the mess, you\u00b4ll find this picture:<\/p>\n

\"FjordenBaby\"<\/p>\n

All the cabins also have pictures, here are some of them:<\/p>\n
