So pleased so many people liked my recent painting of snow on the fen. Just finished my second painting of Helpringham village in the recent snow. This is an acrylic painting 12" x 16", looking east towards the 14th century church. Tried to capture the essence of the light and shadows contrasting on the slushy road. Hope you like it :)

Couldn't let the snow melt away without doing some painting. Here is my first one, painted from photos on this occasion (because it was flippin' cold out there). It is a smallish oil and acrylic study of a view across the Lincolnshire fen outside Helpringham, where I walk my dogs. Hope you like it.
