Ramey Campbell Into the Woods Oil on Canvas 12 x 16 $350

"For a landscape painter, snow is a challenging motif where the snow takes on the color of the lights. In Virginia, the snow doesn't last long, so after a snowstorm all painting projects are suspended and painting activities immediately turns to the subject of snow. In the late afternoon, the yellow orange winter light casts long shadows and the pattern of light and shadows give the composition form. Animals foraging for food leave behind their footprints. The warm light on the cold snow adds a contrasting beauty to the quiet solitude."
