The recent heat wave in our neck of the woods prompted me to stand at the easel and revive a pastel piece that I'd begun a while ago. I'm not sure this nearby, young apple orchard has seen such a snowstorm yet, but I look forward to seeing the white buildings in a swirl of cold, white flakes next winter!
Here's a small (7" x 7") gouache painting I'm working on. It's from my recent trip to France, but isn't anyplace in particular. Rather, this is a compilation of several different images in the town of Richerenches.
What is gouache? It's a highly pigmented, opaque cousin of watercolor. Fun to use!
