A moment frozen in time with a promise of spring. This painting emphasizes the warm side of winter. The contrast of snow, sky, growth and ice reflect the multi-faceted nature of winter. Winter is often seen as cold and foreboding. Nechako Ice reminds us that winter is also subtle and beautiful. A closer look at the ice formations and reflections reveals a fantasy world in shapes of animals, mammals, masks and faeries with their wings folded close to their bodies.
