And if you are ever in the United States you must visit Maine. Lots of places--woods, lakes, farmhouses, lighthouses, rocky shore and islands in the sea.

I think you have the better light, though. Being farther north, you get the more slanted, golden sun rays.
Hi Alex,
Please do come around when you go to Scandinavia, I would love to show you Egon, my famous model, you know.
I just went to Anholt to paint for the exhibition in July. Me and my wife Aud had some nice days in the company of Sys and Egon. It was out of the tourist season and very peaceful. I did some landscape paintings on location and finished some others at home.
You can see them on my homepage now.
