Grey Winter

joha59 28 Feb 2026

Besides black and white just one color was used: crimson. According to Bob this is a painting for absolute beginners, but my first attempt was too bad to upload, so I hope this one is better. I did the trees and the lake a bit different, two lakes and a bit of red in the water. Hopefully is this a goodbye to the grey winter we had here and we can look forward to a colorful spring, on paperpanel of 24 x 30 cm.

Nice work Jos, there seems to be an influx of monochrome work suddenly 😮

Thanks Terry!

Like the pink

Super nice work! The rhyming "flow" of lines / shapes is almost hypnotic in combination with the limited palette. Turned out great!

Top work, Jos . Love the colors 👍🏼🇩🇪🇳🇱

Thank you very much Rebecca, Aron and Dirk!

Looking at this it is very difficult for me to believe that the 1st attempt was too bad to upload. This looks absolutely beautiful. I am a massive fan of this reduced colour palette and the way you created the texture for the trees, bushes and clouds. Stunning.

Thank you StreunerKatze for your comment, added a picture of my first attempt, this was about 4 years ago.
