Chilly Morning #18

Two ravens fly over a frost covered forest ... painted from my imagination. I wanted to see if I could get a frosty effect using salt.

I wanted my paper to be nice and white so I used Strathmore's Aquarius II. It is a lightweight paper, (90# I believe),but lays flatter than a lot of heavier papers.

Lovely composition, Elva. I love the ethereal feel and it definitely reads as a frosty forest. The ravens add so much.
