Another Spirit River Painting. I love to paint winter scenes, the colors in winter are exceptional and the play of light always warms up an otherwise cold painting. I remember asking a gallery director where I was showing some years ago, if he'd be interested in selling some of my winter scenes. He quickly replied that in the 35 yrs he's been selling art, he's never once sold a winter painting. Well, my winter scenes sell. I've been told by clients that they love the warmth the images inspire. It's not easy making a winter scene warm, but a lot of effort goes into choosing the right scene, light and composition to make the painting warm and inviting. I named this river painting ORION, because it's so prominent in the sky this time of year. I can look out my bedroom window at night and ORION is right there guarding the night. Thanks for taking a moment. Joseph
