It is also so interesting that a snow scene was accomplished with so many neutrals (snow is so often painted in blues) Good work!Celeste Berginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06791708298070342301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429997890217426752.post-67620980001784243782010-01-03T09:48:46.154-06:002010-01-03T09:48:46.154-06:00This is a beauty, Bill.

Thank you! <br />I look for abstract in a scene as it helps me<br />to approach, analyze,(determine) shape, color<br />and temp.<br /> When painting from a photo, sometimes you can look at it upside down and see it differently.<br /> It's a fun way to deal with "heavy" loads.billspaintingmnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343383719352968590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429997890217426752.post-29107989760674570432010-01-02T08:40:03.605-06:002010-01-02T08:40:03.605-06:00Hey Cindy!

I wanted to get the contrast<br />of light and shadow on snow.<br /> The shadows were moving along, so this was a quick color study.(about 40 minutes)billspaintingmnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343383719352968590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429997890217426752.post-83325948318903109282009-12-31T08:38:26.510-06:002009-12-31T08:38:26.510-06:00Nice absract here Bill... particularly love the tr...Nice absract here Bill... particularly love the transparency of the sign's (longer)shadow.

The space you have left in the middle and foreground really gives you an impression of snowy winter days! Great painting Bill! and also thanks for the comment on my blog I really appreciate it, Stay warm!Jonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18412392973898601135noreply@blogger.com
