You may have seen the digital version of this particular scene in my birthday present drawing, but I also fully shaded it traditionally too, and included the background to boot! (How could I not when the view of Oslofjord is so lovely???)

[[Image ID: a traditional drawing of Alexander Rybak based on a video taken of him sitting by a pier in Nesodden, along Oslofjord. He's strumming a violin like an ukulele and staring off into the distance, and sits on a rocky outcrop. Boats, a dock house, and distant mountains are behind him on the water. Everything is shaded in grey or blue. Small v shapes in the air above the mountains represent birds flying above. End ID]]

The norwegian liner Oslofjord (1949) in the drydock in Akers. The photograph was taken probably in 1951 from an airplane of the Widerøe company, which used it for promotional purposes.
