It’s a beautiful time of year here in Southcentral Alaska, with longer and brighter days and everything covered in snow. Clear days bring blue skies and views of distant snowy mountains. On overcast days and when snow is falling it can seem like there’s no chroma at all. I was on skis in fog one day where snow on the ground seemed to merge confusingly with mist and frost on trees, and the surprise of a patch of bright yellow in the monochrome. It was the beak of a bald eagle as it perched high on a battered black spruce. Perfect days for finding inspiration that’s especially ideal for rendering with ink wash.
