Comments

I love the cold feel of this picture; especially the sky; I just gone back to pastels too, very rewarding. Keep experiment.

Thanks, Brenda, i hope you enjoy your pastels. I have been experimenting with a mix of pastel pencils, pastel sticks and pan pastels.

I think this is terrific Dawn. It looks as though there is still a blizzard in the distance the way you have faded it towards the horizon. The sky looks as though there is lots more to come too! Not much sign of a struggle Dawn.

Thanks, Fiona. That's exactly what I was hoping for with the sky. My husband says it looks like there is a figure in the doorway. I can see what he means, but it was purely accidental!

Very nice Dawn

Yes it certainly looks frozen Dawn, I can feel the cold.

I don't know why you think you have struggled with this Dawn, I think you have captured the feel of winter brilliantly.

Thank you for your kind comments David, Carole and Linda. I think it was the building I found hard, Linda. It's not something I have really attempted before.

You've certainly caught the cold atmosphere, lovely painting.

It looks really lovely Dawn!

Thank you Sandra and Margaret. Has anyone spotted the tiny figure?

Both the sky and tree really stand out for me, excellent.

This is great. - wonderful sky and great snow

Thank you Andre and Maureen.

Pastel. I struggled with this one. I seem to have lost direction these last couple of weeks. I found the ref photo on paint my photo taken by Paul Jones.

I started painting in Jan 2016 after the death of my youngest sister. I found it great therapy and still do! I love experimenting with different techniques and media. I mainly work in pastel or oils for pet portraits, but I also enjoy doing ink portraits with the odd landscape thrown in for good…
