While thinking about the blog I ran across an unpublished watercolor from last February. Not an unusual thing, but with the heat this June--temperatures over 90 and high, muggy humidity--a memory of the crisp winter air and infinite sky was welcome.
There's something satisfying about the limited range of colors and the simplicity of a winter landscape. This particular view is a familiar one to anybody who reads the blog. It's Druid Hill Creek flowing north from my window. The weather had turned colder and nearly six inches of new snow had fallen the day before. I don't know about you but looking back at a wintry view doesn't cool things at all but it does make the heat more bearable.
