Winter Stillness – Original Pastel Lake Drawing (11x14)

There is a particular quiet that only December understands.

This original pastel drawing was inspired by the lake near my home in Indiana—captured at that tender moment when the leaves had just fallen, the trees stood bare, and the air carried that unmistakable winter chill. The water moves softly through the landscape, reflecting a pale sky and the hush of early winter. Two ducks drift through the cold light, unbothered by the season’s turning.

This piece holds that in-between feeling—where autumn has let go and winter has not yet fully claimed the earth.
