I started this piece a few days ago, it might have been a day off, or J. was home on sick leave, he had just washed his hair and was curled up on the sofa hugging the Dogster. Those two spend a massive amount of time cuddling. Sometimes I almost feel jealous.
As J. was sitting in my lap with his long legs folded against my hip, I thought how the fold of his legs resembled a mermaid’s tail. We think of mermaids as sexy.
They’re standing somewhere in between side to side and back to back. The girl is looking up and away from the bear, her head slightly turned.

My new Telegram sticker pack is here! As usual, I’ve included a set of emotions that we all now and then need to express, but never seem to quite find the words for. Hoping these will prove useful. You can download the stickers to use with your Telegram messenger here. I am still thinking whether I’ll be making those into a printed set, though I have to admit that I rather like …
Wow, look what I found in the mail today! The catalogue for the “No Complaints!” show I took part in at Egorka gallery last year is out!

And giving …
Did something bordering on the impossible today: managed to get my Insect out of the studio. He’s a big guy,and getting him through the studio door was no minor feat.

I’m heading there first thing tomorrow morning to patch him …
Currently I am trying to keep up my art practice while managing my 9 to 5 office job at the same time, and to be honest, that’s quite a lot. One of the things I’ve decided to do to make my life easier is to try planning Instagram posts in advance. What’s the point of that anyway? My second biggest goal (apart from keeping up the drawing and sculpture) is to maintain …
I somehow thought that this time I would outsmart post exhibition blues by signing up for a class that would keep me engaged and going full speed after my show effort was over. I have to acknowledge that I was wrong, here it is again, stubborn as ever. What’s post exhibition blues anyway? Every time I work on a big project I’m really invested in, I end up feeling all emptied out …
Dearest post exhibition blues, can I ever skip you? [Read more]
Hey, welcome to my digital home! My name is Fox Larsson. I’m an artist, sculptor, creator and illustrator living and working in St. Petersburg Russia.

Finding a balance between all those things …
