Snow Day

I doubt if I'll get much painting done today even though I am off work. The south of England has just been hit by the deepest snow in over a decade. Most schools have been closed, all public transport has been suspended and most people are seem to be heeding the travel advice and staying at home. Of course what we call 'deep' snow here in the UK other people (I'm thinking of you lot on the continent or in the states) would call a 'light dusting'. But us Brits can't cope with weather so the whole country seems to have ground to a halt. Which means I get to spend the day playing in the garden with the kids.
It's ironic. I seem to have been painting a lot of snow themed miniatures lately - Father Christmas, Cavern Worm, Hannibal crossing the Alps- and now we get the real thing.
Have a good snow day, and be safe on the roads.

  1. Dusting or not, it looks like the three of you had a wonderful time out in the snow.
