@Egg and @gray: Thanks for the warm words.

@all: I'm glad you like my work and I thinking for the next Dürer.
Maybe I will do the "Apocalyptic riders".

Cheers from Bavaria,

Ernie, you enter the Holiday season as monks would have done in the past, completing a spiritual exercise resulting in a beautiful work! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!

Well, I would argue that the monasteries at that time were actually at or very close to the center of civilization. But let's not lose ourselves in petty debate; the actual practice, albeit inspirational, must have been solitary and harsh.
