Tora's Gallery



Later this morning, Tora and Kjell arrived back at Our House to guide us on the day's tour.

I asked her about the artwork displayed throughout the home.





Tora confessed a great passion for painting – a hobby she took up as a newlywed.

Kjell said, "I had my hobbies and she needed her own."





Because Tora enjoyed art, Kjell encouraged her to try painting – buying her supplies and supporting her in classes.


Tora said she found the hobby relaxing, especially after coming home from her work as a psychiatric nurse.


Over the years, she's produced numerous paintings and needed a place for their display.

"We noticed them in your other home and here," I said. "Little
did we know that
we'd be treated to
Tora's Gallery."
