Entering the studio is always an eye opening experience. Today two images happened to line up and present themselves side by side. The reflective quality of the water made me look twice as the subjects were similar but the time of year was opposite. Both works are site sketches, daydreams realized in the depth of the sky reflected on the moving water of local streams. There is however a distinct difference in the two. The first, clearly created in the above zero frenzy of spring while the second was made more recently during a short break in frozen days and nights. Thirty degrees of difference.
