Someone said to me...how do you find those colors in winter?
Look very closely at your surroundings and you will see lots of interesting and glimmering colors in different winter lights. I really enjoy going into the forest preserve to see what the grasses and the trees look like at all times of the year. They change so quickly you have to capture them as you see them.
The summer is actually the most bland time of year, since the trees and surrounding grasses are similar in color and the way the light shines, everything looks the same.
Winter can present some interesting shading and colors depending on the time of day and the weather.
This is a watercolor and gouache on paper, 12 x 18 in size.
