Original artwork description:

I remember a quiet twilight walk through a birch wood, snow softening every sound as the setting sun cast soft shadows across the crisp white ground. This painting captures that peaceful memory, the dusky light infused with gentle pink tones, and the dark, textured birch bark standing in striking contrast to the snow. It evokes the stillness of a forest newly blanketed in fresh snow, bringing a soothing sense of calm to any space.
An original, one-of-a-kind artwork, this piece is painted in high-quality acrylics on a deep-edged canvas. My process begins with direct observation, sketching, taking notes, and photographing the scene, before developing the work intuitively in the studio. I build the composition through layered brushwork and impasto techniques using a palette knife, blending colours optically in the spirit of the Impressionists. Drawing inspiration from the old masters, I also use scumbling and glazing to create depth and luminosity. The painting evolves naturally until it reaches its own sense of completion.
The finished piece is a contemporary interpretation that balances between abstraction and realism. The image continues around the edges of the canvas, and it arrives ready to hang.
