Through my artworks I ask you to reflect for a moment on the nature around you, on the beautiful feeling that nature can evoke, on what we lose when we continue on the road of 'never enough'.
Snow remnants melting A soft breeze intoxicates me The scent of a new morning
After a period of snow and frost, it has started to rain gently. The last remnants of snow melt, the damp forest breathes the fragrance of new life.

Early morning light Patches of unfinished dreams float towards eternity
The soft light conjures vague veils between the trees, like pieces of dreams floating into eternity upon awakening.
Unfinished Dreams
'Unfinished Dreams' is a new artwork in my collection 'The Narrow Path'. I made this photo during a walk through the beautiful forest Dover Plantage, near the town of Hurup Thy in North Jutland, Denmark.

Colors disappear in the mist I am overwhelmed by silence, alone, afraid that I've lost my way But then I realize, to find the way is to stop looking
A gray, foggy day. A day like so many, where you only see vague outlines of the path you are walking. The silence and lack of sight are oppressive at first. Until you regain peace and confidence, and let the trees guide you.
I made this photo on a gray rainy day on a path near a canal in the vicinity of the city of Nijmegen in The Netherlands.

A lonely cold morning Footsteps muffled Endless carpet of stillness
Fresh snow, as far as the eye can see. The forest looks spacious, light, and larger than usual. It is quiet, and the world feels deserted. Only the muffled crunch of my footsteps in the fresh snow.
After two years without 'real' snow, last week we had a few centimeters of snow. A wonderful moment to enjoy the silence of a white forest.

Embrace the joy of daylight Find comfort in the bright light of a fresh breeze and the winter sun
Our day with no screens, no internet and (almost) no electricity was a breath of fresh air.
Literally, because we took a long walk. Figuratively, because we reflected and talked about our online time and use of electrical devices. Even in our minimalistic household, this generated several immediately implementable ideas, providing peace of mind, time for reflection, time to do different things for a change, and saving on our CO2 emissions.
So we will continue to do this. One day i-off and e-off every week. We can heartily recommend it, if only to become aware of your i-use and e-use and the alternatives that are available.

Embrace the silence of darkness Find comfort in the scant light of a candle and the winter sun
Anuscka and I decided to spend a day "in darkness" every week. Figuratively speaking that is, it will be a day with minimal use of electricity and no use of the internet, and screens in general.
Why? Because we are curious to see how we like it. Because we want to spend less time behind screens. Because we would like to have a recurrent period of silence and reflection. Because using very little electricity for a day contributes significantly to reducing our CO2 footprint...
