Boy, it’s been cold in Utah the past couple of weeks and we’ve had more than our share of snow. Over the weekend we travelled to Annabella Utah, near Richfield, for a big Holiday party with my kids and grandkids. It was cold, but didn’t stop us from enjoying the snow. When I got back to the studio I launched into this painting of a scene along the Fremont River with the sun casting long blue shadows across the snow.

This is such an exquisite watercolor, I don’t even know what to say…the colors in the winter foliage are so warm and balance beautifully with the cool colors in the river and the snow. And I love the way you got the effect of the ice and the reflections. Gorgeous.
Lovely painting! Nice to see a bit of warmth in a winter scene.
