Winter Watercolor

It was a typical winter day in Maine today; sometimes sunny sometimes overcast. I drove around looking for a scene to paint... something simple-not too complicated, since I haven't been painting for a few months because of my arm injury and resultant Brachial Plexis and "Frozen Shoulder".
It was a world of white out there today with 12 inches of fresh snow piled on top of the 18 or more already on the ground. The contours around the countryside vistas are all soft and peaceful... in many places the snow has fallen so thick it has totally buried the stream-beds!
I wandered out to Skyline farm in North Yarmouth and found an ideal composition for today's mood.
So here it is, my first watercolor of 2011 :)
