Second Go

Infinite Ways but only Two Days.

You often want ‘a second try’, multiple, if the snow had lasted longer!

But at least I got my second go at this scene.

Now the red was even more prevalent.

Pink clouds against a turquoise sky, yum!

Somehow this painting reminds me of the old comic books where the images were painted by hand. It has an ‘old’ feeling to it.

The great thing of going to a similar spot, similar subject / time / conditions is that you'll take the learnings from the previous times. I knew the shadows in the snow in front would disappear very fast, and I needed to spend more time on the tree when it was still in orange light. So I started earlier and worked faster too.
After this day (in January) the snow was rained away and it didn't return. But perhaps it will come again in Feb/March.

Fingers crossed for more snow.
You can see in the next posts how the fascination for 'pink clouds' did continue.
There is ALWAYS a 'red thread'.
