With the lack of snow locally it has been a difficult year for cross country skiing. Even today I was thinking there must be some place I can get a ski in before the season is truly over. Part of my thinking is that this is the best time of year to be out in nature with the longer days and warmer noon hour. So it definitely has been frustrating.
However, I have been on my cross country skis six times this winter, with the paltry conditions, which is something in of itself.
I painted this watercolor based on one of my more recent outings. In one of the last accumulations of snow we had, the landscape forms were so well-defined in white or darks that I had to record the scene in paint. There is a stillness to this picture which I love.
