I scream, you scream..

hello !

This is a good reminder of the "bridge" behind the painting (or road, apparently!)

Beau reflet !

Yeah, blatant exhibitionism.. I know.

with more than 240 people looking at this pic... you could well be spotted!!

ed ed says:

just too clever--funny for words... i think he is supposed to have said that he was standing on a bridge when he heard "a scream" penetrating the universe. i had never thought that he might have been misquoted!
despite this he remains a very favourite painter whose museum i visited longer ago than i care to remember... brilliant picture!

So... From a thumbnail it looked so cosy and yummy and from here... Quite good imitation, indeed. Icecream art and I scream for it UuuuuuUuuuuuuu!

balsamia says:

Thanks Tom, Ed and Eija! :-)

I have also always thought of it as painting from a bridge, but I learned last winter that the location is from a hillside in Oslo overlooking the city. In Munch's time it was a small path but now it's a road there. He painted it from memory in Paris though.

balsamia says:

Mange takk you all! :-)

My palette was a well-known icecream in Norway called "Tress". It is chocolate, strawberry and vanilla flavoured - sectioned in different parts (..the colours sort of got mixed during the process though, that's why the brown-pinkish appearance).

Thanks a lot everybody :-)

I'll find out where you all live and call on your door when you're least expecting it. When you open I'll plant a big wet kiss on your cheek before I run giggling away.

(..please don't let anybody else in your household answer the door the next couple of months!)
