Frozen pond framed by soft ochre reeds | Muted winter landscape with earthy tones | Delicate brushwork suggests the gentle sway of reeds in the crisp air | Cool blues and browns contrast with the warm reeds | Quiet stillness of a winter day captured outdoors.

Reflections | Painted on a cold winter morning, this small frozen pond was surrounded by reeds and distant trees. I like experimenting with color combinations that suggest the atmosphere rather than strict reality. Here I started with a green under-painting, brought in yellow ochre and burnt sienna for the dormant reeds, and letting blue and white cool the scene down and bringing in the frost.
