Pencil Shavings

As noted yesterday, there are things brewing in the studio, so . . . let it snow, let it snow, let it . . . 

I decided to take advantage of the fact that we are in the beginnings of winter (even though the outdoor temps tell me it is more like early spring!) and do something that would add a chill to the studio air. Digging through reference from a snowy day drive in the country several winters ago, I settled on working up an idea based upon a dozen or so shots taken at this farm, combining things into, I hope, a pleasing composition. You might think snow is an easy thing to delineate in pencil . . . remains to be seen! Subtlety is the name of this game.
