"Dried River"
2010

I painted this a while ago. Then it was really dry and still quite warm.
Now the temperatures are starting to drop and we are rapidly heading into the "real" winter kind of weather. I am looking foward to see some snow covered landscapes soon.
Its always a super fun challenge to do the seasons very first snow painting.

If you happen to be anywhere near the vicinity of Helsinki, I suggest you check out this rare collection of works by these great Finnish painters.
