Winterberry is a native bush for eastern Canada. It grows in wetter areas. These berries are also featured in Christmas floral arrangements but the berry clusters are denser. Birds and deer will eat these in the country. A male plant is needed to provide pollination. Perhaps we need more males?

I painted lots of pale colours on the snow covered pond to remind of the rainbows in the snow sparkles. The 'distant' shore is lighter still than the pond. The foreground is darker. So you see there is still organization to the abstraction. Click for a video of the creation of this little painting on instagram.
