PURPLE POWER
This is a macro photo of a small flower from Kristiansand, Norway. I don’t know its name. And I don’t feel its name is so important. What matters is the powerful purple colour and how its image really comes alive on the silk design.
Purple Power is about the small things in life and how you should enjoy them, because one day you will look back and realise they were the big things. Life is made up of little things like a smile, a kindness and a showing of compassion. Let your inner purple power shine out and be a reminder of the little big things.

YELLOW SUMMERTIME
Welcome to our family holiday home in in Kristiansand, on the coast of South Norway. We love to make the journey there, when we can.
A few precious times in the year. I took this shot one golden summer day. The cottage is right next to the sparkling sea. Its location is truly stunning. A place to feel free from worries and the stresses of modern life.
Make it your quest to find a space to feel free and be inspired!

WINTER
One of SchimJolie’s best-selling designs. Christmas Day 2012 in Strai, North Norway provided this gift. The naked tree in the winter landscape was instinctually captured from a living room window.
Learn to trust your instincts. Surviving winter is about standing on your own and not depending on others! Whatever the season, what ever the reason, live your life knowing that you are that tree among trees and in charge of your own life.

ROSEHIP
This wonderful rosehip flower was seen in Kristiansand, Norway while clambering over the sea-rocks. Rosehip tea is a popular drink in Norway and it wasn’t until I was overseas in France that I began to miss it and remembered how good it did me on a cold winter night. I tried in vain to find it but could not find it anywhere.
We are always seeking something in life. But sometimes we can get so distracted we forget the people or things that make us truly happy. Think if there is someone or something you miss. Why not re-connect and be amazed!

SINGEL SWAN
This image was captured during an early morning run in Bertes Bay in Kristiansand in the Spring of 2013. The swan seemed to be almost gliding after me as I moved, like it wanted to tell me something. Out of curiosity, I took her portrait.
Later I learned the swimming, single swan, actually is called a sing swan. This species of bird has long been considered a symbol of outer beauty, celebrated in fairytales and art. Yet let us not forget how more vital and essential it is to have beauty inside. By being generous with your laughter and kind with your smile, so much more in life can be achieved. Just try!
