There is nothing more challenging than trying to paint from life as the snow swiftly melts away in front of you. That was the case with this painting. I began this painting on a day there was no snow, scumbling in the details of the brush and the surrounding rocks. When I came back the following week to finish the details, a blanket of snow covered the ground due to a snow storm the day before. However, I was intrigued by the patterns in the snow, and decided I wanted to add this new element to my painting.
