The early bird gets the berry! I love winter landscapes, expecially with a little red in them. And I'm always trying to get snow and crystals to sparkle and refract light. And I also love chickadees :-) So this was a natural combination!

This is a Christmas version of Wind in the Pines. It was inspired by a visit to my grandfather's timber farm, which is why the pines are in rows. It's almost like being out in the forest, just a little more orderly!

I did this piece for the E-On Software 3D Environment Competition 2012. It was inspired by a visit to my grandfather's timber farm. I wanted to capture the cool blue mistiness of the woods on a cold morning.
