I tilt my face to the openness above
And feel the frozen tears of ancestors
Falling from the heavens
As snowflakes
Melting down my cheeks
Mingling with my own tears
Flowing over senseless loss and uncertainty
Until the sadness is cleansed
Into a river of hope

This listing is for the unframed painting. Please add the frame to the cart separately below.

Oil and cold wax medium on Arches oil paper mounted to a cradled wooden panel. Edges of the panel are unfinished wood. The painting will be signed and dated on the back of the panel.

I do my best to accurately photograph and represent my work in my listings but please remember that colors can vary from screen to screen.

** Free print with purchase ** Each of the “Winter Skies” paintings will ship with a free 8”x10” print of another painting (of my choice) from the series. The print will be an archival quality fine art print and the “Winter Skies” poem will be printed on the back. Keep it for yourself or gift it to someone special.
