Snow Storm in Machias




This is an acrylic painting! I wanted to depict the feel of the snow storm that hit us over the weekend. Nature at it's best! Angry, scary, and magnificent at the same time! I tried to convey the feeling of cold and emptiness, where details get lost and found. At the same time, I wanted to be colorful, so I threw some pinks and greens into the sky, which may not be evident in this low quality photo.

Looking Outside


Still, to me, the human figure is the hardest. I am still a little rigid. But, practice makes perfect!
