Burning sunset
The last breath of the day
A welcome to the night

A cold evening at the end of a heavily cloudy, gray winter day. Just before the sun sets, the clouds open up allowing the light for a brief but intense moment to say hello to the night. Like a seasoned painter, the fading sunlight colors the clouds sliding by. Just for a moment, because with the waning light, the colors fade into the palette of a calm and cool night.

This artwork is based on a photo of a sunset over the North Sea, seen from the hamlet in North Jutland, Denmark, where I used to live.

‘A Burning Sunset’ is a new artwork in my collection 'Evening Falls'.

ALL WE NEED IS LESS CONSUMING

Through my artworks I ask you to reflect for a moment on the nature around you, on the beautiful feeling that nature can evoke. Thus to think about your actions to support the wellbeing of the earth and everything that lives on it. And on what humanity loses when many of us continue on the destructive path of ever more greed and consuming. And please, reflect on how you can survive in this rapidly changing world…
