Description
Ms. Cardinal fluffing to keep warm in a Colorado snowstorm. I wanted to capture the sunset glow yet the blur and coolness in the atmosphere from the snowstorm. I was going to paint both a female and a male Cardinal but it would have taken away from the snowy atmosphere which I wanted to capture. I lived in Colorado from age 20 for about 10 years in the Colorado Springs area. the sunsets during a snowstorm could be quite magical when the sky was turning gold but at the same time losing its brightness because of the cold bluish-white dullness of snow falling. Just sitting here in the desert where we have had no rain all year wishing for rain or beautiful wet snow as I remember from living in Colorado.
I did add some ground glass shimmer in some areas of snow but you cannot tell in this rendition the original shows it but not a photograph. I went back recently and made the paint thicker by using faux stained glass paint to give the thick effects.
