Even in winter, light finds a way through.
Winter Glimmer captures a woodland scene where colour and reflection take precedence over literal detail. The water becomes a mirror for mood, holding purples and pinks beneath trees lit with touches of green and gold. Rather than describing a place exactly, the painting invites the viewer to experience it.
Painted in oils with expressive brushwork and areas of impasto, the surface holds movement and energy while remaining grounded in the landscape. The result is a piece that feels luminous and contemplative — a quiet reminder of colour and life beneath the winter canopy.
