A truly lovely painting, Rita. I find the pockets of light intriguing, and I love the blending of the landscape features.

they are. and your work, always has the “spirit of the land” infused into them. you take the time, to go and listen to the forest and the winds. And then, share the story. I love that. 🙂

We’re getting socked with it this morning. The wind is blowing….maybe it will blow hard enough to send the snow to you? 🙂

This is such a lovely choice of palette for a winter scene. The warmer tones in the distant trees and the color of the sky….delicious. Either oil pastels are great for snow, or you’re just veeery good at it. My guess is both 🙂

Thanks Heidi! I do think that oil pastels work really well for snow… they blend easily and give way to a nice soft look. Glad you liked the painting. ~Rita
