Gray Day on the Slopes

Gray Day on the Slopes / 6x6 / Oil on Cradled Panel

March is supposed to go in like a lion and out like a lamb, but you never know when you're in Colorado. It's normally our snowiest month, but Wednesday was 76 and we set record highs for three days last week. Today we're back to winter, and as I look out my window I can see big flakes falling from the sky. Winter's grasp is short at this point, so I decided to pay homage by painting this tonal ski slope. I was tempted to add a few skiers, but thought the lonely feeling matched the gray skies.

PS Don't forget to set your clocks ahead tonight!
