Art of the Day: "Katharine Rowe, Snowy den on Wimbledon Common, 2013" by Katharine Rowe

“Having spent many hours constructing dens like this one with my children, I have long wanted to paint one. Covered in a blanket of snow, this one was too good to miss. I painted it in January in the sunny days that followed 3 days of solid snow. The winter woods, usually so dark, had light bouncing all around reflecting off the snow. With all of my snow series, I became quite obsessed by capturing 'that' blue. This painting is on a linen canvas and framed in a bespoke Whistler style frame with gold beading and a pale slip.” - Katharine Rowe

I'm impressed by the fresh mountain air and bright colours of the Carpathian Mountains! A bright sunny morning in June in a mountain village. Alexander Kriushin is works in the traditions of the European school of fine arts, combined with the southern temperament of execution. The artist travels a lot and works en plein air, but often a plain etude is just an excuse for further work, and then the work begins in the studio.
