Winter Wonderland

Winter is a wonderland of blue and purple hues covered in snow, a time of crisp freshness. This piece celebrates the colours and forms that make the viewer think of this cool season, with a play on geometry with stripes to enhance the shapes of mountains and a variety of trees to soften some edges. Style is naive with the intent of this piece is also to evoke a little whimsy and simple appreciation of the shapes and colours of nature during the cooler months. This painting would make a striking addition to any collection of artworks, standing apart as a conversation piece, and would look great either in the home or office, living room or bedroom. Painted on quality canvas, hooks and wire on back so ready to hang. Sides also painted in a continuance of the composition, so no need to frame.

Landscapes offer the perfect outlet for presenting colour in riotous combinations in some instances, and in others a more muted but still impactful approach.
