The mood of the painting starts to change rapidly as I begin to paint in the middle ground. The muted tones of the snow on the large pine trees on the right side of the picture create a nice contrast to the brighter white of the snow on the ground leading into the foreground. These tree branches keep the viewer's eye from leaving the picture and frame the focal point of the colorful red barns that the horses are approaching.
The Art of Richard De Wolfe is intended to show how I make my art, things that interest me creatively, and what I am working on at the moment. If what you find here interests you, please 'bookmark me', come back often and visit my Gallery, too!
