Woodland in Winter, part 2
A snow fall is a special event that only happens a few times a year at most here in Kent. People driving around in summer tyres probably curse it but to me it is luxury that reminds me of home.
I love the effect snow has on the woodland scenery around our house. The blanket of whiteness unifies all the separate elements in the landscape, turning the woodland into a monochrome tapestry of black and white and all the shades of grey in between.
The tree trunks seem to lose their individual identities and they too become a part of the texture in this winter tapestry. Forming all kinds of interesting lines that tilt this way and that, the trees provide rhythm and pattern, as if they were a part of an abstract composition.
oooh, what an inviting path in the first pic! Just home from dogwalk, it looks much the same here. NOW for some more sofa + book.
Phew.
I look at the path every day as I can see it from my garden, but I can’t actually get to it very easily (my neighbour’s garden is between our garden and it, and because of my ME I can’t walk long distances so I can’t take the slightly longer route that leads to that particular forest), so to me it is not only inviting but also slightly mysterious, as if it lead to somewhere really wonderful.
The sofa and book combo sounds very cosy..
The trees on the winter canvas are interesting in their randomness.
I agree, that’s why I really like them!
