Snowy Day

I was inspired by the contrast and affect of soft, quieting snow to busy city life and its bold structures.

This was mainly painted using a palette knife and heavily textured with impasto

This painting was featured in the Red Bubble groups Oil Painting, Impressionist Art, Abstract Realism and Streetscapes.

Snowy Day belongs to the following groups:

Complex Simplicity of Art, Abstract Realism, Creative, Talented, and Unknown, Fine Arts, Impressionist Art, Masterpiece: Art, New England, Oil Painting, Out of the Blue (75%+ Blue artwork), Painters In Modern Times, Remodernist Painters, Streetscapes and The Urban Environment

    I love this.
    I often strive to make landscapes abstract while still remaining recognisable. This does it so much better than I have managed so far.

    This is beautiful.The calm feeling that comes to a city when it starts to snow hard-you captured it,which is tough since it isn’t tangible I suppose.But I know it.

    beautiful, great capture of the strange silence in a city after a big snow fall, the snow-plows haven’t made it around all the streets yet, no cars, only a few people braving the cold in the early morning. love it

    I like this semi-abstract look to the city street. Great use of the limited palette, in cold blue hues.
    Noteworthy work.

    Great tonal range in this J and I like the softness of the snow, smoothing out the harsh reality of life in the city …..

    I was pondering why this one appealed to me more than Snowy Day II. They are both beautiful pieces…and I realised that the lack of anchors, or borders (whatever they may be) that lined the streets in this piece made me feel more comfortable, more relaxed. And that’s a purely personal thing, isn’t it. I love how we can find out more about ourselves through someone elses works of beauty and committment. thank you J!!!

    Very fine impressionism – tones are soothing and calming – reminds me of one of those quiet, overcast winter NY where sky meets the earth. Exceptional.
