Description

we experience the winter season of frozen beauty.This beautiful impressionistic watercolor was created from another watercolor painting of mine. By altering the colors, I changed the season and mood of the painting.

I'm reminded that here where I live in the Northwest the winter months can be very long. Sometimes the cold temperatures and lack of sunshine give people the winter blues. Since I've only lived here for one year I've not yet experienced the winter blues, but I have experienced not wanting to get out of bed on a cold winter morning.

What helps me get through especially cold days is that I like to think about the new life that is buried beneath the layers of frozen snow and the ice covered lake you see in this painting. I like to remember that new life cannot spring forth at its appointed time unless it first lies dormant in the hard, cold ground. I remember that it's the winter season that prepares new life to emerge in the spring.

Spiritually speaking, I think we all get the winter blues at times... We feel frozen inside when life seems hard and cold and there just doesn't seem to be much evidence of growth or joy in our lives.

So I think that when these winter seasons happen to us we need to remember that even in the midst of the coldest winter season we can know that the warmth of God's love will melt our cold hearts and frozen feelings because His presence never leaves us. His love will remain in us and with us as ♥
