My public high school had a mini exchange program with a school in Denmark. A group of US teens lived and went to school with Danish teens for 2 weeks, then the Danes came here. The takeaway for both groups was that Danish life is better. So, I can't fault Greenland for wanting us to stay away.

Happy 2026 all .
Haven’t been on here for while, thought I’d pop by realising I had missed intelligent conversations.
Meanwhile we had a fab Christmas in Salzburg, these are a couple of paintings created around Schloss Leopoldskron where we were staying. #autignacartiste

Both these graphite drawings are 40x60cm, 2 thirds the size of planned paintings.
Upscaled from the small oil paintings completed en plein air. It’s been a really useful exercise, to revisit and re-examine. #autignacartiste #oilpainting #artoftheday #frenchpleinairpainters #art #béziers
