Making the most of a sunny afternoon I popped over to Coffee Park and painted the snow shadows. The park was a solid sheet of ice from end to end, with wind blown piles of snow. Across the train tracks it was much the same. As I painted the sunlit tree bark I had one of those moments where I thought, this is what I am supposed to be doing. It was sunny, quiet and the scene was quite pleasant. Time almost slowed down as I carefully daubed wet paint onto the paper and saw the scene emerge before my eyes. Its a feeling I get from time to time, albeit not so much in the winter.
