Spring is coming. Or at least winter is ending.
I painted this watercolor shortly after a hike behind the Brattleboro Ski Jump. Even though the colors of nature are subdued they were vivid in the natural light. Some of the colors are actually alive with a richness such as that mud in the foreground or the blue of that sky.
The lengthening of day and warmth of temperatures are bringing an increased optimism which spring affords. It is so welcome considering the political environment we are living through. To that end I can't wait to be able to resume plein air painting.
To a fresh start to spring.....
