Frosty Days are Here

We do not usually get snow but it has been cold and overcast. The sun came out yesterday and it reached the mid 60's, which feels warm. I painted this scene to remember how it is to paint snowy scenes. There is nothing like this until you get up in the mountains which are 2-3 hrs away. In painting this you leave a lot of white paper which you texture with streaks of blue and spatter. No yellow snow!
