"A WINTERS DAY," daily painter winter snow painting © Carol Nelson Fine Art

"A WINTERS DAY"
I always liked this painting. I think I like it because of the perspective, but also because the scene at Cherry Creek State Park is very close to my home in Colorado.
If the sun is this bright, the cold doesn't seem to matter as much.  This painting is sold, but I have many others on my website.

    I so want to paint a winter scene like this! I'll have to add it to my pile of Carol Nelson Art I would love to paint pile. *sigh*

    The blue shadows make this snow scene cold and crisp, and the strong sunlight makes it happy at the same time. Looks like a perfect winter day to go cross-country skiing!

    This is beautiful Carol. I love the depth you've created, your strong shadows and the complimentary color scheme. I can see why it's sold.

    You are so talented. I love the handling of the snow. It makes me want to wear a coat, but I know that it will be warm when I arrive at my destination. Great work!
