Splendor of Winter

Good call leaving off the fence to nowhere, great liner work on the deciduous trees.

My goodness you are a superb artist!

Hi Dracula. This is another great masterpiece. May I ask a question- why did you do everything of two? Also quite a symmetrical composition. It looks very stable. Did you have any special thoughts when painted? I always admire how you process BR paintings I am really inspired by you to try to do the same.

Thanks everyone! I appreciate hearing what you think!

@SunnyLady - Honestly, this was just how I interpreted what I saw the painting in the book. Upon close examination, there are more tree trunks and trees and bushes and everything isn't technically split off into pairs as I have done. I think I was just operating on some kind of intuition. I will say, however, I was trying to preserve patches of that warm light on the snow, which probably influenced where and how I placed the trees.

Got it, thanks Dracula!

I find it astonishing how detailed your paintings always are.. Lovely!
