It has been an unusual winter here in southern Vermont with ice storms outnumbering snow storms. Is this going to be a pattern as we head into the future? Will we be using more specialized boots and less of our skis?

We have had some arctic cold this winter, too! This watercolor has a lot of temperature in it. The warmth of the sun may be a delight but the cold in the shadows is another thing.

I like the diversity of growth and how the eye is drawn into the picture. 

This was painted on a watercolor block, marketed as The Masters' Choice. I really like the rough surface which gives the overall image a feeling of texture.
