First Snow of Winter

Oil

Inspiration:

As I sit here in South Bay in my shorts and flip flops, I think about the beautiful blizzards of winter.

I grew up near Lake Tahoe in Northern California where winter was a magical time!

We used to hike up Mt. Rose in the snow with the dogs, and I think it was on this quiet mountain,

in the pristine powder, that I learned to love the colors of winter and the beauty of the snow.

"Snow" Winter Landscape by Jill Saur

This acrylic painting is sold, but I am posting it to share my love of painting snow.  I can't even count all the snow scenes I have painted over the last thirty years.  My earliest snow scenes were painted in watercolor and were mostly birch and aspen trees in the snow.  There is something magical about a nice quiet winter day with the ground covered in snow.  To me, the pristine white snow is a reminder of new beginnings.  I have done many commissioned paintings of clients favorite places in the snow.  Please contact me if I can accommodate you in this way.  I also have pieces that are already available to purchase.
