Hello Annette. How is your painting coming along?
Here in Estonia we have a light snow falling, and a lot of snow from previous snowfalls on the ground ...

Hi Joosep. Thanks, I have about 12 or so paintings ready, and about 7 drawings finished. I'm aiming for about 20 paintings for the exhibition, all scarlet robins, but I will be able to get away with adding robins to a few landscapes that were already near completion! The work will be on display in a public library for 3 weeks. Estonia sounds lovely. It must be rather picturesque.

Yes, Estonia is quite lovely. I'm sure all of us here join in praying that your exhibition will be a success and a blessing to people there where you live. It seems that scarlet robins are your "motif", if I may say it that way? How did that come to be, if I may ask. Have a nice day.

Thanks again Joosep. I usually paint Australian landscapes from my imagination, but I wanted to do something different for this library exhibition. Since my son had taken many excellent photos of scarlet robins, I thought I would give them a go!

ok thanks for sharing! God's creation is more beautiful than we can describe.

Yesterday I looked out of the window at the start of a difficult day at work and saw every branch of every tree covered with about an inch of sparkling frost, and the sun was just rising over the fjord and the whole sky was cotton candy pink, and with a temperature of -10C, there was a thick blanket of mist covering the water, and I thought to myself: the guy who made all this - he´s on my side :-)

Amen. Beautiful.

That sounds like a breathtaking view Robinshe! It's amazing to think that the creation we see is the fallen creation, and I often wonder, what did it look like before the fall?! It's incredible to think that one day, even the earth itself will be restored.
