This day is celebrated in our neighbor-municipaly, with a demonstration-martch, an art-exhibition and an evening of talks and appeals. Very interesting! I am ashamed to say that at my ripe age, it\u00b4s the first time I\u00b4ve attended an event like this. (It was about time!)<\/p>\n<p>But I am proud to say that Stord Art Group (Stord Kunstlag) asked me to be one of 5 artists contributing in their exhibition. My black lace bra made the poster, and I have to admit I actually think it fits quite well as a poster-piece in this special setting. <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/spindelmaker.bluesystems.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/simple-smile-93.png\" alt=\":-)\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"\/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sunnhordland.no\/article\/20160308\/NYHENDE\/160319999?template=mobil\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-20312\" src=\"https:\/\/spindelmaker.bluesystems.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/bilde-450x319-1.jpeg\" alt=\"bilde\" width=\"450\" height=\"319\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sunnhordland.no\/article\/20160308\/NYHENDE\/160319999?template=mobil\">(photo: Bladet Sunnhordland)<\/a>&amp;nbsp;(Click on the picture for article)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Turid Vikene and Anneli Belsvik Aras (ceramic-artists), Rigmor Nygaard (collage\/paint), Sanita Balode (acrylic), and then me with my textiles and photo, filled the hall with our art.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-20295\" src=\"http:\/\/www.spindelmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/20160308_213250-450x256.jpg\" alt=\"20160308_213250\" width=\"450\" height=\"256\"><\/p>\n<p>I only contributed with three pieces, as my artistic energy is tied up in the upcoming embroidery-exhibition.

Yes, it is an immigrant, who come to Norway for work. But she\u00b4s from England, has red hair and freckles and is called Freya after the Nordic mythology-godess. She\u00b4s a friend of mine, and we were just goofing around wit a scarf. But when I looked at the picture later, she has a very interesting expression, that invites the imagination to play.<\/p>\n<p>                       <!--for paginate posts--><\/p>\n<div class=\"postspace\">\n\t<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<!--all options over and out--><\/p>\n<p>\t<!--include comments template--><\/p>\n<p><!-- You can start editing here. --><\/p>\n<p>\t\t<!-- If comments are open, but there are no comments. --><\/p>\n<p>        <!--do not delete--><\/p>\n<p><!--single.php end--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>March 8th is the International Women\u00b4s day.
