I have always loved the twilight, ever since I was a little girl. When the sun sets in winter and the clouds turn red. When landscapes are under the spell of snow, the adventure begins. Even life in the streets seems enchanted.

Happy New Year! Thank you for such a beautiful set of winter paintings! Nowadays this kind of winter is only in the dreams. 🙂
A happy and prosperous New Year to you too, Alexander. I love these paintings too.
We have had a blizzard for almost 48 hours and the roads are mirror smooth. But you’re right, snow is rare these days.
All the best,
Hanna
Thank you, Hanna!😍
I agree, Hanna, especially when there is snow. It covers many of the rough edges, hides the ugly & allows us to dream. 🤗🌹🙋♂️
You have your way with words, Ashley! Dreams are very important 😊
Yesterday there was a blizzard, and the next few days maybe a glimpse of sunshine. The news has started to carry interviews with people who have seen the sun. Maybe I’ll be on TV tomorrow night 😃😃
That would be great Hanna, on TV. However, you’re over there & I’m over here & I don’t get your TV. In the meantime, perhaps you could send me your autograph? 😉🤗💐🙋♂️
Haha! Who would have seen that coming! I will end up being a celebrity. I just hope the sun peeks out tomorrow along with the TV transmission truck. The BBC will be right up front, and then you can just switch on the TV. It’s a lot better than an autograph. Perhaps the Danish Queen will come by to congratulate me. It’s going to be absolutely amazing! 😁😁😁
Beautiful paintings. The twilight hour is one of the few enjoyable things for me about winter. 🤣 We are inching closer towards Spring.
Happy new year, Hanna!
Happy new year to you too, Ab ✨
I have a distinct feeling that you are really longing for summer 😊
I miss the light!
Yesterday it snowed. It was actually a blizzard. The weather forecast promises sunshine for the next few days. What an exquisite pleasure 😃
Paintings that do a great job of capturing the mood, Hanna. I’m partial to those out tin the country, naturally. 🙂
You’re right, Curt! Paintings are fantastic mood-makers. Furthermore, exploring art archives is a great experience.
It is wonderful to look through all the old paintings 😊
All the best,
Hanna
They often capture a world I wish I could step into. Well, I’ll skip on Hieronymus Bosch. Grin.
Haha! No, you’d better be careful which picture you choose to step into 😅🤣

Bellas y románticas escenas invernales de las tierras del norte. Hermosas!
Un abrazo Hanna, te deseo lo mejor para este 2024.
Muchas gracias por tu lindo saludo Leo. Un hermoso y próspero Año Nuevo para ti también.
Me encantan esos escenarios de nieve con todo mi corazón 😊
Un abrazo grande!!
I love the sunsets and the twilight too, but I can manage well without the snow.
Hi Jo! I love snowy weather. The best is, of course, if the woolen clothes are in good condition 😃☃️
Definitely! Multi- layers.
Twilight is my favorite time of day as well. I love the quality of light.
Thanks a lot, Ali. Light is wondrous, and always worth a study ❤️
