"Toch een beetje sneeuw." Doesburg, Holland.

It snowed the whole day today, but not real snow
just white stuff that melts right away when it hits the ground.
Pity, because I was in Doesburg, a very old city and what would be
more fun to paint then a very old town completely covered in a white
blanket?

It would have been wonderful Rene but the winter is only just beginning! So maybe you have a chance! I like the dampness and coldness in this painting and I can see the sky is full of those wet flakes which just melt when they hit the ground.
