The subject of "Winter Landscapes' brought to mind a poem, short but sweet, by Robert Frost, for which I used as inspiration behind my painting (and here's a thanks to a very kind friend, with the initials of L.A.M., for allowing me to use her lovely portrait -- thank you, L....!)...:
Dust of Snow
The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree
Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.
