"Full of some truly inspired contents about art and self-expression, tatjanaknudsen.blogspot.dk is one of those hidden gems that you simply have to take a look at.

Thanks to my nominator (Mrs. Chance).
Thank you so much Mrs. Chance for given me this wonderful award. When I first had the message from you, I didn't really believe it. I mean United States is sooo BIG, and it wasn't really on my mind that someone from U.S.A would find my blog inspiring. I'm so excited and still very grateful and proud.Thank you Mrs. Chance.

My answers to my nominator (Mrs. Chance's) questions:

1. When you were little, say 5 or so, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I can't really remember, but doctor, nurse, correspondent, lawyer, actor, artist, dentist, chef, veterinarian and midwife have all crossed my mind. To day I'm happy to be a teacher - especially art teacher.

2. Favorite animal? Why?
I have two favorite animals. A cat because it is very independent and a dog, because it is always happy to see you.

3. If you could have dinner with any artists, who would it be and what would you eat?
I would like to have dinner with Vincent van Gogh. I'm sure that we would speak quite a lot and forget all about the dinner.

4. Do you have any pet peeves?
This is a funny question, which I haven't really thought of, but on second thought I don't think I have any pet peeves. 

5. What is your favorite Crayola crayon name.
My favorite Crayola crayon is Caran D' Ache - Neocolor I + II.

6. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live and why?
If I only were to think of myself I would love to travel around the world and speak to a lot of new inspiring people.

7. What are your all time favorite songs?
Right now my all time favorite songs are "Imagine" by John Lennon and "Dear Mr. President" by Pink, but the fact is I love many different genres and songs. 

8. What are four words that would describe you?
I think that social, creative, talking, and direct are four words that could describe me.

9. What is your favorite item of clothing?
My favorite item of clothing is my moms hand-knitted sweaters and socks, and of course a colorful scarf and a skirt.

10. If you could go back in time, what advice would you give yourself on your first day of teaching art?
Tatjana you should have done this a long long time ago. It makes you so happy.
