Original artwork description:

An impressionistic painting of another area of Burgundy vineyards under frost in winter. The glacis technique, of many layers of thinned single colour paint of increasing thickness has been used. This gives a good depth and richness of colour. It can be a time consuming method but less so on this one as I used acrylic paints.

I live in the Burgundy area and always love the many colours that can be seen at different times of the year. I have deliberately focused on and drawn out the colours underneath the frost that were still visible.

The canvas edges have been painted black so that this can be hung without the need for framing. There are no hooks on the back. The canvas is finished with a coat of satin varnish.

French landscape.
