After picking up the vegetables I found a bench to sit on and made this painting real quick, at least half of this painting. The orange glow in the snow drifts was from the park light behind me, the same one I painted previously from a different angle. The delivery truck had a red light on the rear, and the headlights were on because the driver was keeping the truck running to stay warm. It is hard to see, but the headlights were illuminating the falling snow creating a laser beam effect. A few adjustment, I made a pencil outline so as to get the painting centered properly which is hard to do when I use the wood rack. Also, I had my new 'woolies' long john and socks made from merino wool in Sweden, and my new moose skin gauntlets. By the way, the logo on the side of the truck is the Lufa logo, but I got it from their reusable bag and decided to brand the truck here in the painting. I had to finish the painting at home due to the blizzard that was developing.
