Seems like I forgot to post this one from our recent deep freeze, so I am taking care of that now. Hard to believe I was painting in this when today was in the 70s! As I approached the scene, a few things came to mind for my composition. For example, I used my artistic license to melt that ice a little. The flat, rather non reflective surface was just not what I wanted, so I painted a more engaging surface to the ice! That pinkish early light soon faded to cloudy, so I kept the original glow, and reflected that on the melting surface. Sometimes, I paint more what I feel than what's before me. Painting number 2983 in 2983 days.
