Winter Sun by Amy Crook

It’s really hard to photograph and reproduce a blue this light, but I did give a better view to my darling patrons, who got to see how the painting grew its dormant winter trees a few weeks ago.

The pale blue skies of winter hold an equally wan sun shining above these barren boughs. Five trees stand together with branches like lacework, intricate fractals silhouetted against the afternoon sky. A few little birds have braved the cold, can you find all three?

Above, you can see all the tiny detail in one little tree. Below, the painting waits in a frame for a spring that will never quite arrive.
