The Trees-Winter Day

Janis Zroback

The Trees-Winter Day


“Winter Day” is from the Series Landscape and “The Trees and a reflection of our Canadian winters”...

Watercolour on Arches Paper…

There’s a certain slant of light,
On winter afternoons,
That oppresses, like the weight
Of cathedral tunes
.

Heavenly hurt it gives us;
We can find no scar,
But internal difference
Where the meanings are
.

None may teach it anything,
’T’is the seal, despair,—
An imperial affliction
Sent us of the air
.

When it comes, the landscape listens,
Shadows hold their breath;
When it goes, ’t is like the distance
On the look of death
.”....Emily Dickenson

    As I sit here and look I see a hand the tree forms with old fingers stretching,a old story untold with the outcome not yet done. I see a small heart within ,a long walk to begin.
    Beautiful Janis took my breath away.

  • Janis Zroback replied

    I think because you specialize in trees, you see a lot more than many of us would….there probably is an untold story here…

    Trees, the old story tellers of centuries past.

    This is so beautiful! Like a sunset during winter. The sun can look really pretty during winter with the sun shining on an angle in your face than above you. A cold scenery that looks warm; very pretty.

  • Janis Zroback replied

    Thanks Mui-Ling…as usual you are very articulate about my paintings and I love your insight…

  • VanSnuG

    I DO agree with Mui-Ling. It’s cold winter theme with warm color tone. Awesome as always. :-)

  • Janis Zroback replied

    Thank you….often it takes a warm colour to give the opposite effect…plus it adds some excitement to the piece…
