MARCIA BALLOWE BEAUTY OF WINTER

12” x 16” — Oil $1,500

While on drive between Missoula and Great Falls, I was inspired by the ice jams along the river that glistened in the sunlight along the banks of the Blackfoot River. I loved the colorful willows that cast dramatic shadows across the snow. The sunlight on the snow and the bright colors of the sky made this place very inviting and I knew I had to capture this snowscape on canvas.
