ATC Winter Series I

Here is another of my ATC winter series original watercolor landscapes.  I wanted to back light the evergreens and let them melt into the horizon while illuminating the snowfield and capturing a hint of cast shadows from the forground grasses and bush.

Winter Series ATC's

Original watercolor landscapes by Janis Goldblatt. 

I created a series of ATC's last spring after we had a late winter/early spring snowfall.  ATC stands for artist trading card and the group of watercolorists that I paint with  had an Artist Trading Card get together.  After a delightful morning of painting, we traded cards with one another.  There were about 11 of us, and these are just four of the over 15 cards I created.  They measure 2.5x3.5 and it is a great way to shre each other's work with one another while adding to our personal art collections!

Evergreens and Lake Cabin on a Foggy Morning

Watercolor Landscape by Janis Goldblatt - measures 5x7 image, 8x10 framed.

Years ago I traveled to Nova Scotia, and was allured by the water, mist, buildings and rugged lifestyle. Recently, I revisted a black and white photo that I took, was inspired to paint, and added color and atmosphere. 
This is one of three paintings that has been juried into the Mountainside Miniature Show at Foothills Art Center.
