Boathouse at Fångsjön, Jämtland

This is a drawing of a boathouse in Fångsjön near the village Vågdalen, Jämtland. This was a marvelous little building. It could fall over any moment.

With a good quality timber and a pot of the famous red color a house can turn into a kind of eternal monument in Jämtland. As the color slowly fades away the wood is slowly turning grey. Then it just stands there. For hundreds of years it seams. There are many old barns and boathouses in Jämtland that noone cares about.

This drawing was made 1983.

I moved from Sweden to The Netherlands in 1995.

Here on this site, you find my creations because that is what I do. I create.
