Snowy Marsh Scene From Studio

Snowy Marsh from Upper Deck

This painting is from life, and I'm calling it "plein air" because it was a mere double pane slider that separated me from it.   I could have stepped out onto the deck, which has a couple of feet of snow, but I'm weather weary.  I could'a' (shoulda, woulda) suffered more for it, but I didn't!


I haven't painted the marsh as much as I probably should, but this is the spectacular view from the studio.  With the amount of snow we have had and the astronomically low tides recently,  the saltmarsh has become a continuous blanket of white.   The bordering houses and trees made a strong composition that turned out to be striking because of it's simplicity.
