Description
This is the next in the unplanned series of April precipitation. Freezing rain began Wednesday night (my 50th birthday) and by midday on Thursday, there was a full centimeter of ice on the northeast-windward side of everything. Thursday night, the ice pellets started. Friday morning, the ice pellets changed back to freezing rain. The result was a 6 centimeter base of ball-bearing like ice pellets bonded together on the bottom and top by freezing rain. The family Chesapeake and I went walking on it and it was like pavement everywhere. Wild-life was still moving and we saw six deer and a large flock of wild turkeys.
This landscape was painted looking out the family room windows to the northeast. It was really too nasty with the northeast wind and freezing drizzle to set up outside. The glazing on the trees was on the far side from the direction I was looking but it still imparted a different colour to the trees. Once again the horse and wild life trails really stand out through the grasses.
I wanted there to be considerable movement in the front field while staying true to the colours.
The panel had been primed with a medium-light coat of raw sienna.

Amazing abstract mosaic with such beautiful earth tones and I am very glad that you can so accurately represent the real colors, so matter how abstract the design, the freshness and true atmosphere of the scene is preserved! Gorgeous work! l/f

Very kind of you Sunny. Nature is full of patterns that look abstract. In the hustle and bustle of the modern times, we might not slow down enough to really see and appreciate just how beautiful raw nature really is. Thank you my friend!
