Fresh New Snow

Last Snowscape of Winter
Out the window is a great way to paint from life without the struggle of facing the cold, wind and blowing snow.   It's been a long cold winter and we still are experiencing single digit temperatures even though we are in March!

The icebergs on the saltmarsh float up during high tide, then as the water drains they become stacked, toppling over each other.  With a coating of fresh new snow blanketing all of that, the paint matching for today was clean, white snow, periwinkle blue shadows and chunky, muddy frozen marsh.  As the winter has worn on, I find myself scooping up thicker and thicker amounts of snow paint thicker, as if it can help depict the depth and density the snowpack of 2015!
