BIO Hi, I am Gun Legler from Sweden. I live together with my cat Simon in a little village near Gothenburg On the outside I am old, but young inside :-) For so long I can remember, I have enjoyed expressing myself through any kind of art or craft. Until I was 40 I worked as a child psychologist and pre-school teacher, but after that I said goodbye to my profession and began studying at an art school. There I stayed for four years, mainly learning Graphic art (etching, dry needle and linoleum cut). I was a lousy oil painter, that medium did not fit me at all, watercolor I liked better. For many years I made collages of different kind, watercolor and textile. I grew up with a mother that sewed and a father that built violins, so I early fell in love with textures of many kinds. I have now abandoned making textile collages, but I realize that I work much in the same way with my computer art. I take a piece here and a piece there and try to make a whole of it. And I am madly in love with textures of all kinds, I can sit for hours just playing with different colors, textures and filters, making backgrounds just for fun (and for upcoming images). I work very much by intuition when I make an image, experimenting wildly with layers, textures, color and light. But the form is equally important, that�s what Graphic school taught me. I have seldom a clear inner image when I start creating, it is more a feeling I want to express. The process can be quite unconscious to me for a long time. The image gradually takes form, and become clearer to me. What I want with my images is to reach the feelings of the viewers, to make them look into their own inner being and respond in any way, regardless of which feeling is evoked.

I am Gun's daughter Lena (zitalena@gmail.com). I am so, so sorry to tell you all that mom passed Tuesday morning, Feb 8 2022, Swedish time. No panic, no pain, no regrets. So peaceful. I tried to get a message about this on my moms latest picture, but now I can't find it. But now I have her computer and can log in. Please email me if you want. Thanks to all. Mom really loved the community!! Her gallery will live on. I have changed the address to mine, because me and my brother really would LOVE to keep her gallery open. Love to all.

A most unique abstract - like a computer maze. Though it is very tiring navigating the many twists and turns inside our puters ... oh how lost we would be without them. CC

A lovely dedication for Koosie indeed! The composition is wonderful, as I especially like the various "twists and turns" ones eyes are averted to..... Splendid colours and creativity, my Friend! So good to see that things are back to normal.... it always gets better :)

Oh Gun, this is beautiful. I see a forest, perhaps not here, a fantasy forest on some marvelous world in our dreams. Or as someone mentioned, inside the heart of your computer! I too have used freeware for antivirus, firewall, and other free programs such as Spybot Search and Destroy for a long time, and have been very pleased. I am also cautious about email attachments, websites, etc. I love freeware, the price is right, and often it works better and uses less memory then the commercial kind.

agree with jodie, it's like looking through a fancy & antique glass. Wonderful thoughts to Koosie too. And you know what? The image reminds one of Koosie because you captured the subtle interplay of form & line & hue that he does so well and so deftly. It's a Koosie-like image. Nice how you have all this activity around a mysterious center (I looked to see if I could make out what's in that place). And a nice blueish-green hue too. Subtle & sensitive as always, gun...
