The View from my Front Porch - Whiteout - Lin Frye

Watercolor
Arches 140#CP

It's raining as I type, and between the warm up (close to 50F yesterday) and the rain today, our 8" of snow will soon be a memory ....

This small painting though will be my recording of that historic storm as well as the winter white, the fat, soft flakes falling fast, the coating of ice turning everything crystalline, the magic hush the snow gives us....

We had a full moon last night too -- and the glisten of moonlight on the remaining snow was so breathtaking ...and so rare ....

We're to warm to almost 70F next week ... crazy weather indeed, but filled with such memorable moments ....

    I knew that you were not to far from me, Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia. Same weather forecast. Really nice sketch!
