After an extended period away from the easel this piece is finally finished. We were on vacation in Ireland for a couple of weeks and then came home to extensive changes in the garden.
“Snowbound” is quite different for me. Rather than creating a little “envelope” in which one finds a slice of the Ontario countryside, this painting seems to open up to a much larger environment. The space seems somehow limitless. At the same time, the feeling of warmth and coziness in such a situation is one that we all share as northerners.
