    Oh, wow! This one really calls to me! It reminds me of some of the trails we follow here in our own woods. What beautiful artwork!

      It reminds me of my childhood summers with my grandparents in the mountains. I am happy you enjoy this one, too, Sheila. 🙂🌺

    There’s something about Monsted’s landscapes that are so familiar! I’m sure I know a spot locally, by a river that looks just like this painting of the Sæby Forest! Okay, maybe not exactly, but that familiarity draws me into the painting and the atmosphere within it. 🤗🌹🙋‍♂️

    I do not know this artist, but amazed by the complexity of the composition. A labyrinth of visual stimulation.
