I have to admit March is kind of a tricky month for me to paint because depending on where you are, what you are seeing outside can vary greatly. Currently I am obsessed with these cotton candy winter landscapes because this is what the Midwest has been looking like. Absolutely stunnin'.
For March I wanted to put a nod towards the official first day of spring which happens the end of March. This project feels like we're getting over winter and we're beginning to move into spring. And so that's why I did a more colorful sky. It also lends itself to St. Patrick's Day with the rainbow sky and slight hint of green in the foliage to say like spring is coming.
