Hi Kathleen,
I am glad I had the privilege to have a peek at your lovely work. A few months ago my son and I did some winter paintings for a coming show. Actually the first time I tackled a snow scene. My drawing skills are quite up to standard but now,I am ashamed of my choice of colors and the sense of snow and cold. Your scenes really give me the shiver, cold wise I mean. I used photographs as reference. I'll take your advise and go outside and paint...well, living in Florida, the Everglades I guess.
