Golden Cypresses on a hill just kind of remind me of the mounds of Rohan. I know that they just grew flowers on them, but seeing trees like these on hills always makes me assume someone planted them on purpose - and I really like that. Have a gpod weekend! - Simon

At the same time, it feels like something that is not really completely reachable, which is why we see it from a distance, and behind a wall. Have a good weekend! Simon

To me, the idea of a single house at the end of a valley feels does not feel distant or alone, but rather really cozy, away from the noise and chaos in cities and sometimes even towns, and I wanted to evoke that calm feeling with this piece.

I wanted to catch this feeling of solitude, not in a negative way - but rather the feeling of living at the end of a valley where you're left alone to enjoy slow mornings or read a book in your garden in the afternoon.

I've been playing a lot of World of Warcraft recently with friends, and I just had to pay tribute to it's beautiful landscapes with this one. It originally started with just the moon. Of course, Eversong does not have cypresses like these, but they felt fitting to me.

So I went for gouache as I felt so inspired by the paintings of Hans Emmenegger. The colors feel really nice and full of pigments, I loved painting this one (you know I've always loved trees and rocks, so everytime I try out a new medium, I'll go straight to these 🤣) Have a good weekend! Simon 🌿

Lately, I've been spending way too much time exploring Norway on Mapcrunch and see all the houses, mailboxes, farms and barns, lakes and forests. I fell so much in love with that red tone against all the greens that I just had to paint this piece. Hope you like it - have a good week! 🌿 Simon

Also, I know that a lot of you are happy to have the wizard return in my pieces - painting in that little blue hat felt like home to me, I had to chuckle when the blue hit the paper. Almost screwed up the brushstroke 🤣 Have a good week - and count the birds in this piece if you want to 🕊 Simon

The valleys of the Arnas Mountains are full of many baronies with little bridges and tollhouses at the roads, and this one is a particularly nice looking one that I wanted to draw out of my daydreams. 🌿

Anither watercolor (24x24cm) I am so in love with the process. It feels strange, frustrating and rewarding at the same time to be a beginner again (some people might interject here, but in my mind, I am definitely a beginner with watercolor). 🌿 Have a good week! Simon

Thank you! I will do that soon, definitely this week. That depends, I've tried to do a piece two years ago and failed, then did a few smaller ones that I didn't post in the last two weeks😊

Did some watercolors, there is a LOT I need to learn still, but they're fun! They feel so spontaneous. Have a good weekend! Simon 🌿✨️

The piece particularly speaks to me as it is vast, I can "breathe" when looking at it and I feel somewhat small compared to this huge world, which is a nice feeling to have. Overall, I think I should paint more copper plated roofs, I really like the look of them. Have a good week! - Simon

The Tower Archives of Firunsbrunn Village is still one of my favorite pieces, and for once, this seems to overlap with my followers, seeing as it is my most sold print to this day. I wish I could live in a village like this. Anyways, have a good week! Simon

Thank you! I would imagine so as well, I've always loved reliefs, there are even some cast from metal!

I still love to look at this piece and frequently stop and look at it when I go through my work. The Empress and her "Shield" play an enourmously important part in Argenta, so I just had to draw it in a relief view.
