Original artwork description:

My figure is enjoying Hunters In The Snow by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. The painting from 1565 shows a wintry scene in which three hunters are returning from an expedition accompanied by their dogs. This Northern Renaissance work is one of a series of works, five of which still survive, that depict different times of the year.

The overall visual impression is one of a calm, cold, overcast day; the colors are muted whites and grays, the trees are bare of leaves, and wood smoke hangs in the air. Several adults and a child prepare food at an inn with an outside fire. Of interest are the jagged mountain peaks which do not exist in Belgium or Holland. My figure is taking it all in.

Materials used:

Acrylic on masonite
