Frosty Morning Gartmorn Dam

Comments

It's looking gorgeous Val, it's strange weather at the moment, I expect it will be frosty again soon, saying that it was very cold here last night with a touch of frost this morning but as long as the days are sunny I don't mind!

This is very successful, Val. Love the cold frosty colours. There is a lot of depth in it. Good work!

In comparison to the glorious weather we are having at the moment I thought I would post this watercolour of my usual dog walk from a couple or so weeks ago. I've tried to capture the cold and frostiness of the iced over dam, not very successfully but I thought I'd post it anyway :) Thanks for looking.
