#the Bakers house

Anemone x hybrida ‘Honorine Jobert’, EN: Japanese anemone, NL: herfstanemoon

So far I found wild or semi-wild plants in my garden, but I think this one might be a remnant of the original inhabitants of this house, the Baker family. You should know that the Bakers built the house that I now live in, until the municipality designated this to an "industrial harbor area", unsuitable for living. Mr and Mrs Baker were forced to move to another village. The house got a new official destination as "artist studio/office". And now I illegally live in my "office" or what is still sometimes called "the Bakers house". It looks and feels exactly like a family house and still has a massive garden. But walk 200 meters and you can see we're surrounded by oil tankers and coal shipping. It's a very anthropocene vibe.

Now the Bakers really loved living in this house. Mr Baker had built it together with his son, who was a contractor. They used all kinds of leftover materials from the sons construction work. The doors have always been kind of weird and close in awkward angles as a result. My favorite detail is that for piles they used street lanterns.

Mr Baker must be in his eighties now. He occasionally visits and then comes to check "his" house. Mrs Baker passed away thee years ago. She has never been back to visit because their forced relocation had left her heartbroken. What is now our wild paradise, she had carefully crafted into a decorative garden with magnolia trees (still here!), a hedera hedge (still here but very wild!), terraces (that are now completely overgrown but I sometimes hit tiles with my spade) and maybe also Japanese anemones...?

Japanse anemone is a cultivar but once it has established itself it's pretty good at maintaining itself. Not only is it a perennial plant, it also spreads through rhizomes. Fun fact: I did not know that word till I looked up this plant! I had often encountered rhizomes/woodstalks in pesky weeds such as hedge bindweed, but I did not know there was a word or it or that it is a rather common strategy for plants. Rizhomes are now my favorite ecological phenomenon.

Anyway, it seems that this is a plant that is planted for decoration mainly and you can buy it in many garden stores. I like to think Mrs Baker put it here thirty years ago and it has maintained itself since. It's very pretty and blooms up till eight weeks in the late summer/fall. I hope it will maintain itself for a much longer time in our garden.

Concept Character Art- "Linus Baker & Arthur Parnassus" Been wanting to draw the characters from one of my favorite books, "The House in the Cerulean Sea" by TJ Klune for some time now! Starting with Linus and Arthur!

“You silly, delightful man. There is nothing to be sorry for. You fought for us.” - Arthur, THE HOUSE IN THE CERULEAN SEA by TJ Klune

Here is my contribution to Our Favorite Scene Zine latest edition, which compiled over 20 artists’ interpretations of the reunion scene from THE HOUSE IN THE CERULEAN SEA. This book was my first inroad to TJ’s staggering body of work, and remains one of my comfort books at times when my faith in humanity is challenged, or when parenting two smarty-pants gets particularly hard. 😅 From the outset, I wanted to focus on the kids’ reactions to Arthur and Linus’s reunion, because love is something that children inherit from their grownups, and that joy multiplies as they grow up in safe and accepting spaces. I hope you like how it came out. 💕

happy pride!!! 🌈

Arthur and Linus go swing dancing for pride!!

Arthur would absolutely have a small collection of rainbow socks, and I couldn’t get the image of trans wing tipped shoes out of my head. I think Linus could be persuaded into a pair of rainbow suspenders. He probably wouldn’t get any more colorful than that but it’s fun to think about how he’d experiment with personal style. they are so in love.

happy pride (even though it’s almost over) !!!!

[islanddads]

one thing about tj klune he’s going to create a socially awkward little guy who doesn’t quite know how to respond to literally any situation that they’ve been put in and i am going to eat it up every time!!! because heck if that is not me!!!!
