What a BEAUTIFUL painting this is!
I love the gnarled tree and then the quiet dog listening to the birdsong.
We don't have any museums of this nature near us. <pout>

@Judy: But you have the ocean and the beach, dearest Judy! That is also a beautiful "museum"!

Really, this painting doesn't seem to come to an end, it's a monument! The artist also has a kind of sense of humor despite the seriousness of the subject, or is this another painting? My dog wouldn't let approach a bird that close which is stupid because it will raise his chance to catch it, cats are smarter on this point :)
