The painting shows a scene of an expanding town still comfortable with its rural roots.

The painting began life as a practical demonstration to a local Art Society.

I worked from photographs taken and sketches made during a period of heavy snow.

I wanted to capture that morning light when the air seems to be full of frozen crystals.

The figure was added to give a human touch to an otherwise ethereal moment.
