“From the moment I began, I could already see the painting complete in my mind,
Sometimes, a scene feels so vivid in your mind that it’s as if you’ve already lived it,
even though you’ve never actually seen it. That’s how this painting came to life for
me. Every detail-every flake of snow, the cool drip of ice, the little birds flitting
about-felt so natural to paint, like I knew them intimately, even though I’ve never
witnessed a moment like this in real life.
It’s as if the scene existed somewhere deep inside me, waiting to be captured.
There wasn’t a single moment of struggle, just pure flow, as if I was painting
something I had always known.
Maybe it’s a mystery I’m still unraveling, but for now, it’s enough to let the painting speak for
itself.”
