Beach in Winter

Beach in Winter   Originally uploaded by randubnick

Tonight I used my Painter program to create this digital woodcut from a photograph that I took a few weeks ago.  It was December 19th, and there was heavy snow in the forecast.  The storm was supposed to begin around noon, but there was time to get a walk in before it started. The destination was Dane Street Beach, here in Beverly, not too far from home in case the snow got started early. You could see from the sky that the storm was coming, and although I was freezing, I took my hands out of my pockets long enough to get just the one photograph.  I am glad I did, because I liked the result, and thought it would look good as a digital woodcut.
