Soft winter light settles over a frozen marsh, where ice and water merge in subtle harmony. Muted grasses and distant trees dissolve into mist, creating a hushed, atmospheric scene. The composition captures the fragile balance between thaw and stillness, offering a peaceful reminder of seasonal transition.
About the Artist
Artist Vic Roschkov creates watercolor landscapes inspired by the countryside of London, Ontario, Canada. He explores the area by driving through rural landscapes, capturing scenes through photos and sketches that spark his creativity. “I constantly strive to capture the subtle beauty, charm, and atmospheric moods in my art,†says Vic. Raised in an artistic family, he developed a love for drawing at a young age, influenced by his father, a well-known Canadian political cartoonist. Before transitioning to fine art, he spent thirteen years working as a graphic artist and illustrator. Vic paints in a compact yet well-organized studio, where large sliding glass doors fill the space with natural light. When not painting, he enjoys fishing and cheering for his favorite NHL team.

"Icy River" Oil Painting
By Rick Howell
Located in Denver, CO
Rick Howell's "Untitled 2" is an original, handmade oil painting that depicts a snow lined stream reflecting the blue and rust colored shimmer of cold water melt flowing into the distance. About the Artist: Rick Howell's landscape paintings deftly fuse the influences of the Old Masters, the American Romantic Landscape movement, and the tonal colors, loose brushwork, and softness of form displayed in the Barbizon school. Howell’s art is notable for its poetic and atmospheric interpretation of the land, as derived from his direct on-site observations and impressions. A master of light, color, and shadow, Howell creates highly ordered scenes which consciously juxtapose hazy or blurred elements with sharp and refined details. A master of the tonalist landscape, Howell often utilizes the overall tone of colored atmosphere or mist to elicit an emotional response. Howell’s work demonstrates extraordinary sensitivity to time and place, to the endless variety of forms and colors of landscape in the Southwest, and to expressing the quiet contemplative beauty of nature, capturing the nuances of place through his use of subtle gradations of color and light. Howell often painted en plein air for weeks at a time, even in harsh winter months. While Howell was neither purely a realist nor an impressionist painter, his works convey both the earthly and the ethereal to capture the full essence of a locale as observed and felt on location. As a fourth-generation native of New Mexico, Howell had a deep connection with the Southwest; in particular, he drew considerable inspiration from the wilderness that surrounded his studio at the mouth of the Conejos Canyon in the Southern San Juan Mountains...
