Snow on the Cedar
Oil on panel, 8x10 |
The beautiful snow is STILL blanketed over the countryside! This must be some kind of record for Missouri. The lane is still too high for me to get out to the road, so I am still snowed in and painting! This giant cedar is out in the front yard and towers above the house. To get an idea of how large it is, the "little" tree to the left is a mature Bradford Pear. My uncle told me this past Christmas that he planted this cedar - and the one behind the house - many years ago. All of our children have climbed way up into these trees while exploring. Now, they are covered with snow as I've never seen them, making them the perfect subject for painting! It is another overcast day, but today, there is a hint of pink at the horizon, and a little violet in the gray. This painting is the 56th in the row - and another month of paintings completed :)
