Thank you!
My painting was inspired by the monasteries in Meteora in Greece. I haven't been there (yet) but would love to go.
My medium was acrylic, glad you liked it

Lovely. It's a pity you weren't around to design for Ludwig II of Bavaria. This is like an organic version of the unbuilt castle of Falkenstein.

I would love to design a new castle in Bavaria - I wonder if Ludwig has any descendants

You are very welcome, I only wish I could study under someone with such artistic talent as yourself. I just want to surround myself with genius and hope to somehow benefit from it.

This reminds me of my dream of building an interfaith monastery, in the mountains outside of my city.
It would be epic like this.

Amazing work.
I envy your skills.

Thanks for your feedback. I hope you realize your dream!
My dream monastery would have a simple premise... to invite kindness and exclude dogma!

It's from M. Night Shyamalan's 'The Village' soundtrack called 'What are you asking me'.
And no problemo!
