Chocolate For My Sister
This is an illustration by Hans Arnold for an episode of the short story series ”Veckans Chock” (Shock of the week) in the Swedish magazine Veckorevyn. The story was written by Pat Stadley and in translation (back to English, I guess) the title would be "Chocolate for my sister". It was probably published in the late sixties or early seventies, is my guess.

Only 7 Days To Go!
- Hans Arnold illustrations previously in this blog.
- Hans Arnold in the Monster Brains blog
The kickstarter starter is an editor and director with the national Swedish TV company and he has filmed many hours of interviews and has collected hours of other material. What is left is basically editing everything together. The goal was 65.000 SEK (about 7.000 USD) and it has happily just now been reached. However, additional money is still welcome!
If you are, like I am, a fan of Hans Arnold and would like to see this documentary made in the best possible way - here's your chance to contribute!
Unfortunately the Kickstarter description is in Swedish but you might be able to figure it out with Google translate.
PS. I have personally nothing to do with this project. I just want to see the documentary completed.

Accidentally Rothko
Paint over
Dangerous Minds: "...photographer and artist Mattie Kannard has spent the past eight years photographing graffiti, but only after it has been painted over by the building owners. The results often resemble an unintentional pastiche of Mark Rothko’s style of abstract expressionism."

Also see his children's book Kattresan (The Cat Journey). Be sure not to miss page 18 where a cat explodes after too much cookies and lemonade.
