Original artwork description:

There's a birch wood near my home and in the snow it's a beautiful place where gentle shadows are cast against the crisp white background. The pale Winter sunlight is mellow with tones of pink and the dark textures of the birch bark are striking against the snow.
An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created with high quality acrylic paints on a thin edged canvas. I begin with observation of the place making notes and taking photographs to work from in the studio. I paint some base layers with a brush and then impasto techniques layer on layer applied with a palette knife, creating a contemporary painting, which lies somewhere between abstraction and realism. The sides are painted white and the painting would benefit from a frame, which is not supplied, there is a cord at the back ready to hang.
