February Snow at the Creek

February Snow at the Creek
Oil on panel, 16x12
purchase here
Finally, we have a beautiful blanket of snow on the ground - turning all into a winter wonderland!  So, on this very overcast, snowy day, I am painting one of our local creeks.  With the unexpected extra time, I am painting larger than normal - 16x12.  The wood panel was first primed a pumpkin shade of orange, which I have allowed to peak through here and there for a little "pop" in a cool winter landscape.  Unusual winter colors used here - a little prussian blue, ultramarine violet and cad orange for that pop.  This is painting number 779 in 779 days - I hope I can make it to all of my scheduled events tomorrow!
