Snow outside, a fire on the hearth, comfortable chairs, good books, something hot to drink, and a cat for company. My ideal of a cozy winter day! I created a rainy autumn day picture of this reading nook, and now I've changed it to a winter day with snow.

This is my digital artwork, not a photograph.

Rain on the window, a fire on the hearth, comfortable chairs, good books, food, something hot to drink, and a cat for company. What could make an autumn day any cozier?

This is my digital artwork, not a photograph.

Christmas in the cottage in the cwm, featuring my mom's cat, Pearlie. This is my digital artwork, not a photograph except for the cat.

You are expected, just follow the lights.

Here's a winter/fantasy scene in the “cwm” in the mountains that I've used for several other pictures. This time it's winter, and the solitary cottage dweller is expecting company.

Cwm Solitude

Cwm Autumn Frost

“Silence was pleased: now glowed the firmament
With living sapphires: Hesperus that led
The starry host, rode brightest, till the Moon
Rising in clouded Majesty, at length
Apparent queen unveiled her peerless light,
And o're the dark her Silver Mantle threw.”
— Paradise Lost

I created this picture in Vue to use for a mural on my bedroom wall.

A simple Christmas desktop made in Vue. I like to reuse my abstract designs as textures, so the sky texture comes from Chaos Tie-Dyed, and the red and gold balls from Rubies & Gold.
