Patch of Path, 9 x 12, oil on panel
This was painted on one of those dark, damp days that you wanted to stay in bed. Fortunately the sun peeked out enough for me to do this sketch. It is a simple statement about how light and shadow fall on snow.
I like how this painting and the previous post go together. I also like how this one takes the viewer up a kind of enclosed hill towards an opening with light at the end of a long winter. Spring is coming, it has to be!
