WINTER IS UPON US

'Winter in the Waikato' uses mixed media on canvas to convey the cool tones and bare branches in the Waikato landscape.
The falling leaves, with frost still on them was an idea that emerged from the photos I took in my dressing gown early one frosty morning, of the fallen leaves still with their Autumnal colours and a coating of white 'icing'.
​The latter was depicted using a heavy acrylic medium with salt!
