Description
The Freezing Forest! Yes it certainly was freezing! It can get down as low as 30 degrees below freezing point where I am in Sweden. One of the first things that I noticed about the winter in Sweden, was the total lack of colour. Almost as if everything was either black or white. When painting winter scenes, I have found how even the slightest colour, can be put into the painting to bring it to life. When there's a clear blue sky, it reflects on the snow and the whole landscape is full of colour. That was the case with this scene and the sun shining through the trees, casting long shadows, enabled me use even stronger blues. The sunlight also allowed me to add a little warm glow to the trees on what was otherwise a very cold day.
