Walking in a Winter Wonderland

Posted by Jenn Greenleaf Feb 20, 2009

I have an assignment to write about how to make a mixed media collage using photographs taken of winter scenery. What a perfect coincidence! The weather hit us like a raging bull night before last; it lasted all through yesterday, and then into this morning. We’ll be hit with yet another storm Sunday, but I have no idea if it will be anything like this past storm. It will add to the accumulation we already have, though, which will further enhance my picture taking opportunities!

Typically, I don’t really care for the winter at all. In this situation, though, I am happy to walk through my property taking pictures of the snow covered trees and other elements of nature. This is a quickie assignment, but I think I can expand it into other writing opportunities. I love it when that happens! The best part of this whole thing is I finally found my camera’s adapter, so I can share photos of my work (as well as upload the pictures necessary for this assignment).

When was the last time you incorporated nature in with your artwork?
