No, I actually meant Tove Jansson ;) She's better known as a writer but to herself the painting career was equally important. There's currently a really big exhibition in Helsinki with her paintings and drawings and basically everything about her life.

Oh! I’ve always thought of her just as a writer and I thought she only illustrated her Muminserien on the side. As you can see, I’ve a lot to learn. But these exchanges prove useful, don’t you think? ;-)

She illustrated the Swedish edition of the Hobbit, by the way :)

Just leaving this here, hoping it may be of help. There are tons of other languages
as well.

Sorry guys, I haven’t been very present in recent weeks. Last December I was reluctant to become the team leader because I knew sooner or later I would kind of disappear from the forum. It happens almost cyclically.

Anyway, today I’m here and I’ve noticed that I’ve been remiss in setting a monthly challenge for September. As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, this month’s challenge is going to be about art in the Nordic countries.

September Challenge
Read up about an artist, a work of art, an artistic movement, etc. linked somehow to the Nordic countries and report back to the team. A few points to make the challenge easier and more doable for more people:

- you can get your information in whatever language you want, even though using your TL is most recommended.

- you don’t have to limit yourself to art from “your” Nordic country. If you study Danish but want to know more about Edvard Munch that’s absolutely fine.

- we don’t need an essay when you report back. A few sentences will suffice.

- since it’s already so late in the month, the deadline for the challenge will be mid-October.


Just to give you a starting point here are a couple of links to Wikipedia (my Danish and Norwegian aren’t great, so there may be better pages in those languages):

Svensk konst
Norsk kunst
Kunst fra Danmark

Hallo alle sammen!

Jeg lærer fortsatt en litt norsk til hver dag. Jeg synes det er vanskelig å merke noen forbedring nå. Kanskje har jeg kommet til et platå, men det er vanskelig å fatte likevel. Jeg leser 10 sider på en norsk roman og ser på en del av en episode av TV-programmet 'I kveld med ylvis' (omtrent 14:30 min) hver dag. Dessverre klarer jeg ikke å skrive og snakke hva som helst på norsk. Jeg bare skriver noen setninger med kompiser på chat-en, men får ingen korreksjoner. Derfor kan jeg ikke akkurat bevitne hvor er norsken min nå. Noen gang tror jeg jeg er nær ved å nå B2, men andre ganger synes jeg jeg forstar nesten ingenting av det jeg hører på. Allikevel, jeg trenger å øve litt mer. Det hadde vært verre i de foregående månedene og i de siste to uker har jeg klart å utføre de ovennevnte oppgavene mer oppmerksomt Allikevel, jeg planer å bruke en bok til, 'Learn Norwegian', som har mange teskter som passer bra med B2 aktiviteter.

I have taken up Emme's challenge and written a little story in Southern Jutish about the Danish painter Otto Frello.
