DEEP BLUE WINTER

DEEP BLUE WINTER is a mixed media collage painting that perfectly captures the Dutch winter snow and ice landscape. Children skating on the natural ice against a backdrop of trees and plants. This artwork transports the viewer to a serene and picturesque setting.
The painting depicts a scene that has long been part of Dutch culture and heritage: a group of people gliding gracefully across the ice, their movements creating elegant patterns as they skate towards the distant horizon.
Behind this serene beauty, however, lies a poignant message about the effects of climate change. As the artists depict this traditional Dutch pastime, they subtly remind us that scenes like this are becoming increasingly rare due to the changing climate. With rising temperatures and unpredictable weather patterns, the once deep freezes that made this cherished winter activity possible are becoming increasingly scarce.
