Description

Snow is still a mystery to many in California. But my husband and I met skiing one Thanksgiving weekend years ago at a Mt. Baker ski lodge in the Cascades of Washington State. I can still remember him fixing his skis and the wonderful, excited feeling I had as I talked to him in the snow.

When snow is falling, I love it. Nothing to me is quite so beautiful as moonlight on the snow. It was a hot day here in California when I painted this and if you have painted you know it goes on for days until the painting is finished. So for days my mind was back in time, feeling the snow.

I have never skied in the Aspen but I wish I had. And I sure imagined doing it in this picture. I think of the skier as going HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS--- and the holiday is Thanksgiving.

The skiers dad is holding a lantern out in front of the well lit log cabin. Inside, Mom has a wonderful hot meal is on the table.
