A bit of artistic whimsy. Kjell E. Midthun (b. 1954) is a Norwegian artist who specializes in illustrations of nisser (gnomes) in rural surroundings. "Nisse on Skagen". "Hvaler innaskjærs". "Dove of Peace". "Happy naturists. Grimsdalen."

Os Nisser também são do folclore da região. São gnomos benfazejos. Nisse é o nome na Dinamarca e Noruega, Tomte é o nome Sueco, Kabouter nos Países Baixos, e na Finlândia é Tomtenisse ou Tonttu
