ENQUIRE

I sometimes paint in the snow and am particularly fascinated by the tracks in the land of ancient pathways and landlines highlighted by the snow.
In the snow the light level increases exponentially with the white land bouncing and reflecting all available light like a giant crystalline mirror. Snow days are not just special because school and work is closed but because when we look into the reflected light of the snow our souls are illuminated at the time of year when light is needed most.
