Return of Winter in Shu Swamp

Winter's Tranquil Effect 46"x 58" 2015




Again Winter is upon us, coming later than usual but welcome because of the beauty it brings to the land. I started this painting last February and let it rest over the summer, then returning in November to finish because I needed the cold air outside to bring me back into this scene. Perhaps it is not yet finished because sometimes the obvious is not seen for quite a long time but still it hangs in a local gallery window I hope to inspire onlookers to stop and reflect on the splendor of the season.
