173. Lars Granlöf

The author Lars Granlöf visited our class and told us about his book "Släpp mig fri". He drew this adventurous mermaid, swimming towards a horizon with mountains in the background.. or is it a hand? Like if the ocean is an edge, ready to climb.  

172. Annika Hjelmberg

Annika drew a sweet, colorful mermaid-self

171. Malin Persson

Malin drew some funny mermaids while in Ireland

170. Robbie Foley

While in Ireland we watched (and danced.. alot!) to a gig by the band Ska-boom! The Singer Robbie Foley drew a merman, like a selfportrait. Really cool! Now he is in this band: Ska-beats.

169. Anya

We were so many so one half had to stay at Anya's, she drew this one!

168. Christine Carlin

Our class at Sörängen saved up some money and went to Ireland in 2009! It was amazing.. the nature, but also the city. We had so much fun and we got to rest our heads at Christine Carlin's house while in Derry, a friend of our teacher Gudrun. She showed us everything worth seeing, like Giant Causeway for instance. She helped me collecting seashells and told me about the.. not so many, mermaid-myths in Ireland. She also played the piano and sang for us. It was a great time!

167. Therese Ingebro

A friend of Ellinor's visited her at Sörängen, and also drew a mermaid :)

166. Monica Schultz

Monica, the sweet teacher at Sörängen, drew this a time ago together with her husband Göran. They wrote the children's book "Här kommer Bu-Ran och Seo-Ran från Korea" together among other things.

The mermaids are eager to hug the diver and can't wait for their turn

Nina drew this amazing mermaid at sörängen, where she teaches. A colorful mermaid with golden hair.. and the colors are so soft. She taught us about symbols in art, their history. "Good luck in life little mermaid" she wrote to me.   

160. Mattias Fyhr

Mattias Fyhr thought the other way around when he drew his mermaid! He researches about gothic literature that inspires his own writing, for example "De mörka labyrinterna" and "Död men drömmande" about HP Lovecraft.
