I LOVE this! Fantastic colors and composition. I love the way it is saturated but I still understand it as a real place. This is something I try to do in my landscape paintings as well. Well done!
Whoa! What a stunning and startling and magnificent rendering and vantage point. All together. I love Christine's comment too. Hope it doesn't change much more! I love the freshness of the distance and vibrancy Susan. Thank goodness it's spring too!
Thank you, all! This painting reminds me of an illustration from a Disney book version of "Peter and the Wolf" that I had and read over and over as a child. Heavt, snow-laden bows on pine trees--the quintessential image of Russian (and Vermont) winter.

My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill in northern Vermont, what’s growing in my garden, a curio brought back from travels or an ordinary object from the kitchen shelf made special by careful looking. "Journal" paintings are fast, improvised daily entries, a chance to experiment with new approaches and pay attention to the here-and-now. When I’m traveling, quickly recorded impressions are posted from Paris, Provence, Spain, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. My large studio compositions take time, planning, refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".
