Original artwork description:

A serene and expressive oil painting, depicting a blue sky over an expansive, winter landscape.

This painting captures the cool, wintery countryside, using an elegant, calming palette of natural browns, greys and pale blues.

The smooth, light foreground forms a contrast to the darker fields stretching beyond, with a blended band of trees reaching across the middle of the artwork. A dark, rugged horizon, suggests buildings or distant trees, but this is left to the viewers imagination.
The sky is a cooling balm, spanning the top of the artwork, comprised of soft blue hues and sweeping brushstrokes.

Layers of rich oil paint have been applied with both palette knife and brushwork, onto a stretched Italian linen canvas.

This artwork is ready to hang.
