It's Winter

It's winter time! It's that time of year when the leaves are on the ground, the temperature is dropping, and Christmas music is on 24/7. I don't really associate art with the winter, just Christmas music. When you google famous winter paintings, landscape during the winter is shown. Claude Monet's winter scene picture isn't you typical winter scene. His brush strokes give the snow dimension and depth. Monet painted many winter scenes across Europe. This painting is called Le Boulevard de Pontoise à Argenteuil.  The picture looks gloomy just like a normal day in the winter. There are many realistic detail in this painting. Gloomy and cold are the moods that I get from looking at the painting.
